Wouldn’t it be nice to make your job out of your hobby? Fantastic idea- Isn’t it? You would enjoy going to work every day. But is that true? What makes a hobby a hobby and a job a job? How many people find part of their hobbies in their everyday work? Our hobbies are closer to our engineering jobs than we might immediately think. For example, oil painting and wafer construction have more in common than meets the eye.
In this talk, we reflect on how hobbies overlap with our jobs - without us noticing - and how we can enhance appreciation for our jobs and tailor them to increase our personal engagement. Increasing our satisfaction with our work is a key point for both the employees’ and companies’ health and productivity. Engaged employees contribute more actively, bring new ideas and solutions, and take on more responsibilities.
