Joy at Work

Workplaces attract clutter and mess. Wasteful meetings, disorganized papers, endless emails and unnecessary tasks wear people down, and over time they can drain the joy from work, hold back career progress and damage well-being.

In Joy at Work, Marie Kondo, author of The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up and star of a Netflix series, teams up with Scott Sonenshein, a business professor at Rice University. Together they offer stories, studies and strategies for clearing away clutter so there is room for the work that matters most.

The book applies the KonMari Method alongside current research to help readers deal with physical and digital mess and with the habits behind it. The goal is a tidy desk and a clear mind, with the productivity, success and happiness that follow.
