Authors Ben Renshaw and Sophie Devonshire believe it's possible to make the time you spend at work more rewarding and enjoyable. In LoveWork they share seven simple steps to help you find new ways to build a more positive relationship with your work.

This book is for you if:

You are moving up through your work or moving on to a new role

You'd like to move faster or go further

You want to find, rediscover or nurture your love of work.

You'll learn how to unlock your thinking to trigger a renaissance in your work experience, to embrace dynamic working and to discover, develop and then deliver new ways to thrive at work. If you want to love life, you'll need to LoveWork. It's time to stop counting the hours and start making those hours count.

As a father I have noticed that the next generation are determined to live different lives and make different trade-offs. Young people who want to work hard, whist prioritizing work that they enjoy. They will not tolerate what the previous generation did. Work should be fulfilling and LoveWork helps you make changes for a better future. --Errol Williams, Vice President, WeWork

Love is the most underused word in business. It seems to be incongruous that as human beings we carve out 8-10 hours of our day to live in environments where love is supposed to be absent! Love has been programmed out of business and we need to bring it back. --Paul Snyder, Executive Vice President Stewardship, Tillamook County Creamery Association
