Joy at Work is the workplace companion to Marie Kondo's global tidying phenomenon, co-written with organizational psychologist Scott Sonenshein. This paperback edition applies the beloved KonMari philosophy to desks, inboxes, meetings and digital files, helping busy professionals cut through clutter and rediscover focus. Blending practical decluttering steps with behavioural science, it's an accessible, encouraging read for anyone who wants a calmer, more productive working life, whether in an office, at home, or hybrid.. About the Book:. In Joy at Work, Marie Kondo teams up with Rice University business professor Scott Sonenshein to extend the KonMari method beyond the home and into the modern workplace. The book opens by tackling the everyday chaos of overflowing desks, cluttered inboxes and endless digital files, guiding readers through deciding what truly "sparks joy" in their working environment and letting go of the rest. Kondo's calm, encouraging voice runs throughout, paired with Sonenshein's research-backed insights into decision-making, habit formation and workplace psychology. Together they cover physical tidying — desks, drawers, storage — as well as digital tidying, including email management and file organisation. Real-world case studies and relatable anecdotes, drawn from Kondo's consulting career and her Netflix series, bring the ideas to life and make the advice easy to apply. Beyond decluttering surfaces, the book explores how a tidier professional life can reduce stress, sharpen decision-making and create space for more meaningful, purposeful work. It's a thoughtful blend of practical organisation techniques and deeper reflection on what we really want from our careers, useful as both a quick decluttering manual and a longer-term guide to better working habits.
