About this audiobook
A science-based, practical blueprint for cultivating a life—at work and at home—full of belonging, joy, and vitality, from the New York Times bestselling author of The Culture Code
What is a meaningful life, and how do we make one? How do certain communities foster closeness, fulfillment, happiness, and energy? What makes us flourish?
In Flourish, bestselling author and leading culture expert Daniel Coyle trains his eye on the groups and people who have demonstrated exceptional connectivity and dynamism. He draws on research and original reporting—introducing us to thirty-three men who were trapped in a Chilean coal mine, an anarchist deli in Ann Arbor, the Dutch soccer team that revolutionized the sport as we know it, a nursing home that helped its residents turn back the clock—to reveal the principles and secrets that distinguish these communities. He finds that flourishing groups do two things: they cultivate presence (open, responsive awareness) and practice group flow (generative exploration).
Through captivating real-world stories, reporting, and firsthand accounts, Coyle explores what sets some groups apart—and unlocks the door to allow you to flourish in your life.
