Leadosophy: Episode 41 - "Leaders: Should You Champion Joy and Happiness in the Workplace?"
Episode 41 Leading Others Towards Happiness: Is this a job of the leader? Aristotle devoted pages towards trying to pin down a definition of happiness. Happiness has been the subject of philosophical examination for millennia. What does it mean to be happy? How would you define happiness? Who owns the happiness burden: others or ourselves? Is there a link between happiness and leadership? In this episode, I will not assume there is a link, but rather, we will simply examine the nature of happiness while asking more questions than giving answers. \n\nLeadosophy examines an article written by Alex Liu and titled "Making Joy a Priority at Work." What's the link between joy and happiness, and where do leaders play a role in the pursuit of individual happiness versus collective happiness?\n\nReferences\n\nhttps://hbr.org/2019/07/making-joy-a-priority-at-work?\n\nSeason One: Foundations of Leadosophy Leadosophy is the fusion of leadership and philosophy. We use philosophical thought to deepen our understanding of leadership together.
