How to find meaning and success at work

Sandy Cohen

Dorie Clark is one of the most brilliant minds in business today, but what I love most about her is that she keeps humanity at the center of everything she does.

So when it comes to finding both meaning and success at work, it's about making smart decisions about what we take on and keeping long-term goals in sight, even when we don't have evidence of the results.

Dorie is a professor at Columbia University and Duke University's Fuqua School of Business and the author of several books, most recently, "The Long Game: How to Be a Long-Term Thinker in a Short-Term World."

In this conversation, we discuss:
• Why now is the optimal time to negotiate for what you want at work
• The origins of the myth that professional success naturally leads to happiness
• How limiting herself to one meaningful goal at a time has led to more ease and accomplishment in Dorie's professional and personal life
• How to summon the courage to stick with long-term goals when the results aren't immediately obvious
