A common metaphor for modern life is 'keep the plates spinning', but it is becoming increasingly hard to balance professional and private lives, and this takes its toll. The authors examine the working relationship between the organisation and employee, and establish new ways that managers can broker a better deal for all concerned.
Industry Reviews

'For most people, their work is a key factor in their self worth, family esteem and identity. Staying healthy at work and getting help quickly when it is difficult to cope is therefore a human as well as an economic necessity. This book is exactly what I'd

expect from Professor Cooper; it is hard hitting on both the challenges and the solutions. Good work is good for you and bad work isn't. This book makes it absolutely clear what you can do about it.' Clare Chapman, Group People Director, BT

'There is so much unnecessary misery at work but here are well-evidenced ways for a better way of working beautifully explained.' Professor Richard Layard 'This is an important book on a critical topic facing all organisations and people at

work. We need people to offer their full capabilities and potential in order to compete and so create a vibrant economy and we cannot do that without attending to their wellbeing. Cary Cooper and Theo Theobald have offered a special contribution to this

vital topic. It should be read by all leaders, managers and employees seeking to create sustainable success.' David MacLeod, the Chair of the UK Government's Task Force on Employee Engagement
