Job Satisfaction and Sustainable Employee Development : Engagement, Well-being, and Passion

Job Satisfaction and Sustainable Employee Development aims to present knowledge about job satisfaction from the perspective of employee well- being. The book provides new theoretical and practical insights into job satisfaction in relation to employee well-being, passion for work, and engagement. An in- depth analysis of global literature clearly shows that job satisfaction in terms of employee sustainability – especially in terms of well- being, employee engagement, and passion for work – is a relatively new concept that encompasses many different practices and approaches. Most research on job satisfaction focusses on the organisational sphere and other factors influencing job satisfaction in terms of sustainable human resource management (SHRM). This book fills an identified research and practical gap by providing a wealth of important information on how to increase employee job satisfaction by caring for their well- being, their engagement in the workplace, and shaping their passion for work in the context of sustainable employee development.

The practical conclusions drawn from the book on shaping job satisfaction are useful for decision- makers and researchers, research on employee management development, psychology, especially work and organisational psychology, business psychology, sociology, and personnel policy in various types of organisations and industries. Lecturers, trainers, and specialists in leadership and management education may also be interested.

The book is both scientific and practical in nature. It can therefore be used in all management courses and serve as required or supplementary reading for postgraduate students, MBAs in HRM, organizational management, and leadership. It will be a source of valuable
