Minter Dialogue with Dr Tracy Brower
Dr Tracy Brower is a sociologist, dedicated to studying work life fulfilment and happiness. She’s an award-winning speaker and the author of two books, The Secrets to Happiness at Work and Bring Work to Life by Bringing Life to Work. Tracy is also a contributor for Forbes.com and Fast Company and has her work featured in TEDx, the WSJ, and Fortune.com. In addition to her day job as Vice President of Workplace Insights with the Applied Research + Consulting group at Steelcase, she’s a board member with the United Way of Greater Ottawa County and a council member with the Design Museum Everywhere. In this conversation, we discuss what is and can be happiness at work, how much of yourself you should bring to work, the importance of self-knowledge as a leader and what one can do to bring happiness to the workplace.
