About this title: PRAISE FOR JOY AT WORK This is not your everyday leadership book about how to survive in the corporate jungle, or how to outfox the competition to build a bigger bank account. Dennis Bakke knows that business is not just about the bottom line. It's about something much more important. "Work," as Bakke explains, "is one of the ways we honor or 'glorify' God." Today, joy and work are rarely used in the same sentence. But God really does intend for us to find joy in our work. Is this possible? Can this be accomplished in a fallen world?

"I thought the book got slightly repetitive toward the end, but I liked what he had to say. It is kind of sad to think we need a book to remind us of why work should be a joyful thing... but, for many people, work is just another paycheck. Bakke challenges the reader to look at ways to change that, and I think his ideas about extending decision-making throughout a workplace, providing mentoring opportunties for all staff, and eliminating the bureaucracy are right on. A thought-provoking read."
"Not my typical genre (as it doesn't have a plot!). I read this book as part of my role on the Board of Education for a start-up charter school this year. Innovative business ideas, and a good guide for consistency between "personal" & "work" values. Applicable to situations from business to volunteer work to family."
"This was a good book, very motivational and I really subscribe to the idea that empowering employees makes them happier and more successful. But it was short on concrete ideas and about 100 pages too long."
