The Joy and Challenges of Today's Work (podcast) with Dr. Chip Roper

God did not create work to be drudgery, but due to the effects of the Fall and our sinfulness, work can definitely not be what it should be. But that does not mean that work is all bad.
In fact, work is where we often find purpose and joy.
Dr. Chip Roper is the Founder and President of the VOCA Center. The VOCA Center is a faith-based organization that brings God's wisdom to your work through teaching, coaching, and leadership development.
It recently partnered with the Barna Group to conduct a research survey to discover what brings joy and what brings challenges in the contemporary workplace. This “Life@Work 2025 Report” is free to download here.
Our conversation with Chip Roper:
* We discuss practical strategies to increase joy at work for both workers and leaders.
* The study discovered that the majority of U.S. adult workers (7 out of 10) say that they experience joy more than half the time they’re at work.
* What brings us joy at work includes (1) work relationships, (2) our achievements and purpose, and (3) helping others and making a difference.
* Workers who derive their primary satisfaction from helping others are nearly 3 times more likely to experience high levels of joy compared to those motivated primarily by financial rewards.
* Gen Z and Millennial workers seek meaning beyond the paycheck and find joy in helping others in and through their work.
* While relationships with people bring joy at work, what’s ironic is that this is the same category that scored high on what creates challenges at work.
