About this listen

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.

So inspirational as well as her show. It's amazing to know she also had to learn how to find joy.

I love it!!!

Unless you are very unhappy at work you will not be amazed by the suggestions mentioned here. Tips for productivity are not super creative but useful if you have never though about them in the past.
I don’t regret having used the time to listen to it but I am not amazed.

It’s ok

Excellent

This was my first KonMari book. There are some useful lessons that I want to try, but it’s not earth-shattering. That being said, it’s a short listen that probably offers some useful tips for most people. I found the latter half (written by the co-author of Kon Mari) more useful.

Okay

I love Marie Kondo but this book is more for people in larger businesses. I am not in a team and I don’t attend meetings and that was half of the book. Definitely a great book for those people who do though.

This book would be great for those in large companies

I am a performance improvement consultant and have often helped people sort their work areas. This was an incredibly uplifting approach. I will highly recommend this book to anyone asking me how they can improve their time management or joy at work.

Great to focus on what's important to each reader

This is not the typical book I would read but it did motivate me to get rid of things I never thought I would get rid of and I freed up much needed space for the things I do value. I used to hate sorting and tidying up papers and work stuff but I did it while listening to the audiobook and it did not seem bad at all. I might do another round of tidying in the same area now that I’m feeling much better about it and free in some respects. Thank you Marie Kondo and Scott Sonenshein!

Everything has a place. Everyone, Everyone contributes something special from kids to adults, from black to white, from young to old, and challenged to nonchallenged. Enjoy life. Wonderful concepts were given in the book.

I am a big fan of Marie Kondo. The life changing magic of tidying up transformed my life when I picked it up 5 years ago, so I was eager to listen to this book to see what it could offer.

Essentially, this book is a rehash of her first bestseller. I think it’s only suitable for people who already love the Kon Marie method. I personally found it to be a good reminder. It inspired me to clean up my workspace. It also helped me reflect on my priorities. The book gave me more confidence in my decision to pursue my current career path.

I didn’t resonate as much with Scott’s portion of the book. I did however finally clean up my inbox and desktop thanks to his advice

Interesting for tidying geeks
