2020 stopped us in our tracks. Now, we have an opportunity to come back to work in a better way. Can we leapfrog into a new and better way of working? In this opportunity to create a more balanced and joyful workplace, can we also create paths for more kindness, humanity, fellowship, and justice?  

This season on Joy@Work, we'll talk to people who are using a "joy mindset" to move these needles — to create real and lasting transformation. We are going to hear from leaders who are "in the game" now, looking ahead, listening, and learning about how to get this right, to energize more joy at work.
