Boreout!
November 19, 2008
Overcoming Workplace Demotivation (Kogan Page; $25.00)
Do you find yourself drudging to work everyday and faking productivity? Are you constantly surfing the Internet and Facebook chatting because you are completely bereft of inspiration to work? Then you might suffer from what Philippe Rothlin and Peter Werder call "boreout."

Their latest book, Boreout! highlights the causes of lackluster work performance due to an absence of motivation and satisfaction. According to the authors, "boreout" is the latest problem among employees that are suffering from the dearth of stimulation and challenges in the work environment. Boreout! shows employers that are just now awakening to this trend how to deal with dispirited employees and overcome workplace demotivation.

Learn how to combat the latest work epidemic and realize that staring at blank screens is not burnout but "boreout."
