“Many strivers are much less happy than they should be.”

That's Arthur Brooks on the people he studies — leaders who are doing fine, but not as happy as they could be. His new virtual course, Leadership and Happiness, is built to change that: helping leaders become happier, and in turn, happiness teachers for everyone around them.

Course registration is open to the public and class begins on September 28:
