Janice and Margaret talk with Mike Rucker about his new book The Fun Habit. Mike, an author and organizational psychologist, shares the personal stories that inspired him to write this book and explains how focusing on fun (versus the pursuit of happiness) led him to a more fulfilled and happy life.

We explore the importance of fun and ways to bring more of it into your nonprofit work.

You can read an excerpt of Mike’s book on our blog.

Mike challenges listeners to use his Play Model Time Audit Workbook to utilize their time to allow for more fun.
