According to a global Gallup poll,
negativity in the workplace is rife, with only 1 in 8 employees being
psychologically committed to their jobs and likely to be making positive
contributions to their organisations.
Energy coach Jon Gordon wants to change that. In his bestselling
self-help book, The Energy Bus: 10 Rules to fuel your life,
work and team with positive energy, the author offers lessons on
staying positive and avoiding ‘energy vampires’ who will ‘suck the life
out of you and your goals and vision’ if you let them. Gordon offers 10
simple rules to achieving positive results which, when applied, have an
impact on health, family, team and personal success.
The author draws on his experience of working with thousands of leaders
and teams to provide readers with insights and practical strategies to
help them achieve a positive team and culture. Written in the style of a
fable, the book tells the story of a man, struggling in his job and
marriage, whose car gets a flat tyre, forcing him to take a bus to work.
The bus driver’s positive attitude helps him to turn his life around.
“While this fable takes place in a business setting, this book was
written for everyone. We are all part of a team, and every member
of our team – whether it’s our work team, sports team, family team, or
school team, can benefit from the 10 simple, powerful rules shared in
this book. After all, positive people and positive teams produce
positive results, and the essential ingredient is positive energy.” Jon
