How we work isn't working according to psychologist Barry Schwartz who says we focus too much on the pay packet and not enough on what makes work satisfying. In his new book, Why We Work, Schwartz argues for radical revisions to the way we think about work. Money, he says, is not a effective motivator but job satisfaction is. The book suggests ways to change work culture so that employees stop dreading work and enjoy it instead.
