THE STORY

Human Values Belong in the Workplace

Work, In Progress is a call on the working world to become more human, and a fascinating discovery of how employment has lost its way over the past 60 years. Looking at the cultural dynamics that influence society now, and the aspirations of the next big working generation, the author looks to nature to focus on the two areas that will bring healthy human values back to the workplace: security and purpose. It opens your eyes to the way work should work.
