Dennis Bakke's 'Joy At Work' - A Revolutionary Approach To Fun On The Job

Back in the Garden, work was fun. 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-Newswire) - Dennis Bakke, a graduate of the Harvard Business School, wrestled with these questions when he co-founded AES, a worldwide energy giant, in 1981. Shaped by his faith, Bakke sets off on a quest to create the most fun workplace ever—using principles established in the Garden. In JOY AT WORK, Bakke describes how he empowered people to use their God-given talents free of needless bureaucracy; obliterated management; eliminated job descriptions and pushed decision-making responsibility down to the plant floor.

These principles extend beyond the walls of business, and can be applied to nonprofit organizations, churches and even your family. JOY AT WORK has the power to profoundly change your workplace and your life.

“This book provides valuable ideas for leaders who wish to build or strengthen organizations using sound spiritual principles.” --Chuck Colson
