The importance of finding work that aligns with your values

When working in a job that is out of alignment with one's values, it can quickly lead to disengagement and unhappiness. This can be caused by not sharing the same values as colleagues or feeling disconnected from the company's culture. Research shows that only 32% of US employees felt engaged at work in 2022. However, there are organizations that prioritize employee engagement and create a positive work environment. By focusing on defining what one truly wants from their career and seeking out organizations that align with those values, individuals can find greater satisfaction and fulfillment in their work.
