SPaMCAST 593 - Be Happy and Thrive, An Interview With Scott Crabtree

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The SPaMCAST 593 features my interview with Scott Crabtree. Happiness at work might sound squishy, but happiness has rigorous science behind it. Simply put, happiness yields better outcomes both in terms of value delivered and our own perception of our value.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;"> <img style= "display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src= "https://assets.libsyn.com/secure/show/20727/AylaScott15-0045-1.jpg" alt="Scott Crabtree" width="199" height="300" /></span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Scott Crabtree helps people apply science to thrive at work. After earning a degree in cognitive science from Vassar College, he went on to lead the design and development of video games and other software. He discovered the science of thriving (positive psychology and other brain sciences) in 2003 and immediately became a passionate student and teacher of that research. He resigned his senior leadership position at Intel in 2011 to found Happy Brain Science.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">When not presenting the science of thriving at work, Scott enjoys playing music and getting into the Oregon wilderness, especially with his wife and two daughters.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Contact Information</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">LinkedIn</span> <a href= "https://www.linkedin.com/in/sccrabtree/"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">https://www.linkedin.com/in/sccrabtree/</span></a></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Happy Brain Science: </span> <a href= "http://www.happybrainscience.com"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">www.happybrainscience.com</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> </span></p> <p> </p> <p><strong>Re-Read Saturday News </strong></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Today we tackle Chapter 5, Make It Safe - How to Make It Safe to Talk About Almost Anything, from</span> <a href="https://amzn.to/34RuZ6V"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Crucial Conversations: Tools for Talking W
