The Happiness Hypothesis by Jonathan Haidt is the smartest book I’ve ever read — filled with valuable and fascinating insights and information.
Very different than the Happiness Hypothesis, The Happiness Advantage is filled with data and anecdotes demonstrating how a positive attitude -- happiness -- can improve productivity as well as enhance emotional health and satisfaction.
Provides persuasive solid evidence that good ethics can be good business. Trumps the valuable insights in "Good to Great"
Switch is a mind-expanding book on how individuals and organizations can accomplish meaningful, positive, and lasting change.
Covers similar ground as Switch but adds meaningful insights and practical strategies.
