    As always, I'm grateful to my journalist husband, Andy Alexander. Once again, he has been a tactful and supportive editor.

    It is also handy to have sisters who are professors. Neuroscientist Helen Burroughs went through my chapters with care, checking for scientific accuracy. Communications expert Libby Vick tried to bring my language and assumptions up to date. Thank you both for reading through my draft and setting me straight.

    Thanks also to Kerry Hannon and Susan P. Joyce for providing expert chapters. Kerry is a high-profile career and finance author, journalist, and speaker. Susan is a superb career writer, and her site, Job-Hunt.org, is the place to go when you're hunting your next gig.

    I love the illustrations drawn by multitalented artist and author Karen Deans. Thank you for taking on this small project.

    Thanks much to Tom Hodson, Adam Rich, and the wonderful team at Ohio University's WOUB Public Media. Hosting the Jazzed About Work podcast these last few years has been a joy and a vital part of my continuing education. Thanks also to our wonderful and talented guests, including thoselike Tomwho show up in this book.

    Among many other supportive Ohio University friends, I thank Dean Mark Weinberg for many years of partnership with the Voinovich School of Leadership and Public Service. Congratulations for the wonderful growth of the Voinovich Academy for Excellence in Public Service. Our work together has inspired topics in this book.

    Once again I thank my excellent agent Cindy Zigman of Second City Publishing Services. You make this process so much easier, and I appreciate your willingness to stick with me.

    I want to thank my clients and mentees, many of whom have encouraged my writing since long before my first book. All good relationships are reciprocal, and you are my teachers.

    Thank you also social media friends from around the world. During the long process of writing this book, I was encouraged by frequent posts and comments about my first book, Think Like an Entrepreneur, Act Like a CEO. Twitter friends have been particularly lively, as you may see if you follow me @beverlyejones.

    Finally, thank you, Career Press, for keeping me in the family. Let's have some fun with this book.

    INTRODUCTION

    Some people always seem excited about their work. Sure, they go through crises like everyone else, but they bounce right back, energetically tackling their next challenges.

    Sadly, these folks are a minority. Long-term studies show that roughly two-thirds of American workers often feel unhappy in their work lives. Despite occasional moments of job satisfaction, they frequently are bogged down in boredom, loneliness, fear, or resentment.

    Are you in this second group? Feeling stressed? Frustrated? Professionally adrift? Wondering how to feel good about work again?

    You're not alone. Most of us feel stuck or uncertain at times.

    Research by the Gallup organization over many years suggests that only about a third of American employees typically are engaged in their jobs. These people are involved in, enthusiastic about and committed to their work and workplace.

    When you're engaged, you feel positive about what you do. Not only are you happy, but also you're likely to be helping move your organizationand yourselfforward. You're on a path to success.

    The story is different if you're among the 53 percent Gallup describes as not engaged. You don't feel so great. You try to complete your required tasks, but finding the energy to go the extra mile or break new ground is hard.

    If you're among the 13 percent that Gallup describes as actively disengaged, you're in deeper trouble. You are not happy.
