INTHEBLACK: Do you want to be happier at work? New research shows how

We all want to be happy at work. Or at least happier, don't we?

Across this conversation, listeners will learn about a foundational concept: Success often follows happiness rather than causes it.

Drawing on research in positive psychology, the episode outlines how mindset, habits and self-awareness account for a large share of overall wellbeing, far outweighing external circumstances.

It also explains how small, consistent practices such as learning to be grateful can recalibrate the brain's natural bias toward the negative.

Listeners will learn:

• The relationship between happiness and leadership

• Positive psychology as a field of research

• Research data on happiness and how it's a 'skill'

• The key components of developing workplace happiness and contentment

• How to recognise 'green-light moments'

• Ways to shift out of work-related ruts, regain perspective and avoid catastrophising
