He is the\u00a0New York Times\u00a0bestselling author or co-author of ten books, including\u00a0the business classic, \u201cFirst, Break All the Rules\u201d in addition to, \u201cNow, Discover Your Strengths\u201d &\u00a0\u201cNine Lies About Work.\u201d You probably know that Marcus is a highly analytical, data-driven trend evaluator who left his mark at Gallup. Yet, ironically, his rigorous study has landed on a conclusion many of us might accurately say needed no deep-dive at all: Love, which is the most powerful of all human emotions \u2013 the source of our creativity, collaboration, insight, & excellence \u2013 has been systematically drained from our work lives. And, It's time we brought love back in. We\u2019ve all heard the adage, \u201cDo what you love.\u201d But how many of us has fully discovered what we really do love doing most, what fully engages us & makes us thrive? And, how many of us get to bring our full, messy, unique, weird & amazing selves to our jobs instead of being expected to conform & tamp down our individual & personal expression? The release of Marcus\u2019s new book, \u201cLove And Work,\u201d coincides with the publishing of this podcast, & during our conversation, we not only discuss the many uncommon & creative ways we can unleash our true individual selves, we dig into the relevance of employee engagement in the post-COVID era (spoiler alert: it\u2019s more important than ever), & why workplace leadership demands a complete reinvention in order to foster love, respect, appreciation \u2013 the things all of us are needing & wanting in our work experience today. As I hope you\u2019ve come to expect, this is another stunning, insightful & unusual conversation that is sure to enrich you in many unexpected ways.","breadcrumb":{"@id":"https:\/\/7pu.55f.myftpupload.com\/marcus-buckingham-why-love-and-work-are-inextricable\/#breadcrumb"},"inLanguage":"en-US","potentialAction":[{"@type":"ReadAction","target":["https:\/\/7pu.55f.myftpupload.com\/marcus-buckingham-why-love-and-work-are-inextricable\/"]}]},{"@type":"ImageObject","inLanguage":"en-US","@id":"https:\/\/7pu.55f.myftpupload.com\/marcus-buckingham-why-love-and-work-are-inextricable\/#primaryimage","url":"https:\/\/staging-wmplo.xyz\/mark-c-divi5\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Marcus-1000.webp","contentUrl":"https:\/\/staging-wmplo.xyz\/mark-c-divi5\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Marcus-1000.webp","width":750,"height":750},{"@type":"BreadcrumbList","@id":"https:\/\/7pu.55f.myftpupload.com\/marcus-buckingham-why-love-and-work-are-inextricable\/#breadcrumb","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Home","item":"https:\/\/staging-wmplo.xyz\/mark-c-divi5\/"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"name":"Marcus Buckingham: Why Love And Work Are Inextricable"}]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https:\/\/7pu.55f.myftpupload.com\/#website","url":"https:\/\/7pu.55f.myftpupload.com\/","name":"Mark C.
