How do we regain a sense of purpose and passion for the work we do in public health? The Joy in Work Toolkit is an adapted version of the Institute for Healthcare Improvement (IHI) Framework for Improving Joy in Work, modified to meet the needs of local governmental public health workforce. In 2017, the IHI developed the IHI Framework for Improving Joy in Work as a tool for healthcare organizations to better understand barriers to joy in work that lead to high rates of staff turnover and burnout and co-create strategies to address them. This toolkit includes an adapted version of the IHIs What Matters to You Conversation Guide for leaders and an Action Guide adapted by NACCHO with strategies to promote joy in work. The Guide also teaches a conversation style that identifies barriers and supports for joy in work.
