Work as a Calling
Career & Purpose
Research by Amy Wrzesniewski shows that people who view their work as a 'calling' — rather than just a job or career — report higher satisfaction, engagement, and performance. Positive Psychology interventions like job crafting, strengths deployment, and meaning-making can transform your relationship with work, regardless of your title or industry.
The Research
Wrzesniewski & Dutton (2001) found that job crafting — proactively reshaping the boundaries and relationships within a role — significantly increases meaning, engagement, and job satisfaction.
