Flourish: The Art of Building Meaning, Joy and Fulfillment book cover

Flourishing is “the experience of joyful, meaningful growth, shared with others,” according to the definition Daniel Coyle uses in his recent book Flourish. He views it as a process shaped by our daily habits and environments — but it’s not a solo act. It’s one shaped by our relationships with others. In Flourish, he summarizes five years of journalistic research into ecosystems such as neighborhoods, companies and schools, that have done extraordinarily well at cultivating this type of joyful, meaningful, shared growth. If you’re a Social Capital leader who wants to spark genuine connection and a spirit of fun in your organization, Flourish is essential reading.
