Projekt Arbejdsglæde i Philly
Hele firmaet (alle 4) deltog i ippa konferencen om positiv psykologi i Philadelphia, og vi havde det fantastisk.
Det er verdens førende arrangement indenfor feltet med over 1500 deltagere, som kunne opleve alle pingerne, bl.a. Seligman, Zimbardo, Cooperrider, Csikszentmihalyi and Diener. Begge Diener’e faktisk :o)
Her er de bedste citater fra konferencen, hentet fra min twitter stream:
„Awe is what moves us forward.‟
– David Cooperrider citerer Joseph Conrad.
„Business must be a force for good in the world.‟
– David Cooperrider.
„Homeless people in India and USA missed the Maslow memo.‟ (De kan nemlig være glade, selvom de mangler alt på det materielle plan.)
– Robert Biswas-Diener
„Being healthy makes you happy and vice versa, but the link from happiness to health is twice as strong.‟
– Ruut veenhoven
„Puritanism is the dreaded suspicion that someone somewhere is happy.‟
– Sir Richard Layard citerer H.L. Mencken
„To flourish in life, aim for at least 3 positive emotions for every negative one.‟
– Barbara Frederickson
„The top 2 motives for murder are… 1) love, 2) work.‟
– Michael Frese
„Being too happy is bad for you. 8 on 1 10-scale is just right. Eg. cancer patients are more likely to survive if they’re at an 8 instead of 9 or 10.‟
– Ed Diener
„It’s a myth that lottery winners are no happier after they win the money or that quadriplegics are no unhappier after their accident – your circumstances do matter!‟
– Ed Diener
„You look a little down – go do something nice for someone else.‟
– Martin Seligman
