Book description
In
Just Enough,
top Harvard professors offer a revealing, research-based look at the
true nature of professional success, helping people everywhere live more
rewarding and satisfying lives. True professional and personal
satisfaction seems more elusive every day, despite a proliferation of
gurus and special methods that promise to make it easy. They conclude
that many of the problems of success today can be traced back to
unrealistic expectations and misconceptions about what success is and
what constitutes it. The authors show where the happiest and most
well-balanced among us are focusing their energy, and why, to help
readers find more balance and satisfaction in their lives. LAURA NASH
is a Senior Research Fellow at Harvard Business School. She is a leading
authority in the field of business ethics and has written many books on

on Monday.
