Publisher's Summary

Declutter your desk and brighten up your business with this transformative guide from an organizational psychologist and the number one New York Times best-selling author of The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up.

The workplace is a magnet for clutter and mess. Who hasn't felt drained by wasteful meetings, disorganized papers, endless emails, and unnecessary tasks? These are the modern-day hazards of working, and they can slowly drain the joy from work, limit our chances of career progress, and undermine our well-being.

There is another way. In Joy at Work, best-selling author and Netflix star Marie Kondo and Rice University business professor Scott Sonenshein offer stories, studies, and strategies to help you eliminate clutter and make space for work that really matters.

Using the world-renowned KonMari Method and cutting-edge research, Joy at Work will help you overcome the challenges of workplace mess and enjoy the productivity, success, and happiness that come with a tidy desk and mind.

Some Great Tips

I've read (listened to) Kondo's other two books, and was concerned there might not be anything new here. I wasn't disappointed though, as I found some very useful ideas that I've already implemented. I found the segment on Digital Files and emails particularly helpful. I do wish a PDF file had been included though, as I found the audio challenging to navigate. The chapters on my device don't line up with the chapters being narrated. Still, I'm happy with my purchase and am rethinking how I approach my workspace.
