For working adults, business leaders, and HR professionals who want to lead a more fulfilling life, The Secrets to Happines at work shows how we can thrive at work by making empowered, wise choices about the kind of work we do, the people we work with, and the ways we manage our work-life boundaries.

Tracy emphasizes the power of relationships at work--and the importance of colleagues and coworkers--and how to foster the very best of trust, empathy, and work with others. THE SECRETS TO HAPPINESS AT WORK explains the growth mindset and how to say yes more often, learn from failure, embrace stress, and stretch to achieve fulfillment.
