FUN JOBS  

PROJECT

What if fun is the skill we need most at work?

If you’ve ever asked “where did the spark go?” about your work — this project is for you. I burned out while running a consulting business and researching a PhD in meaningful work. So, I went on a mission to reset my relationship with work - by doing the most fun jobs I could think of. 
 


What I learned might just change how you feel about your work.

"When did work stop being fun?"

This question hit me hardest

after burnout. 

Turns out I’m not alone. 2/3 of workers globally aren’t engaged and burnout is out of control. THIS IS BONKERS. And the leading cause? A sense that our work doesn’t matter.

"Something about how we work...
isn't working."

What is the Fun Jobs Project?

The Fun Jobs Project is a live research experiment to rediscover what makes work meaningful, energising, and fun.

From the stage of the Vienna State Opera to the ski slopes of the Austrian Alps, I explored what happens when we follow our spark. What really makes work feel alive? Along the way, I uncovered something bigger:

"Serious fun isn’t a nice-to-have — it’s the skill we need most for reconnecting to work.."

You don’t have to quit your job and ski, sing, or stand on stage to feel good at work. Serious Fun at work is a skill we can all learn. 

If you feel stuck, flat, or wondering where the sparks went for you or your team, then this project is your blueprint for change. Here you will find inspiration and tools to spark playful exploration and the courage to follow your curiosity.
