A Cappella Books welcomes entrepreneur and author Steve Carse for a special afternoon talk and book signing in honor of his book, "Work Is Fun: Seven Ways a Successful Ice Pop Company Makes Work Meaningful and How You Can Too."

About the Book
Too many of us go about our work solely to make money to serve our “real” lives after the workday ends. But what if we could make our work fun instead, not by switching careers or seeking a raise, but by shifting our mindset and incorporating seven simple but game-changing principles into our workplaces?
In "Work Is Fun," Steve Carse, Cofounder of the King of Pops hand-crafted ice pop brand, shares his story of how optimizing daily tasks for enjoyment and job satisfaction, including measuring success outside of mere monetary terms, has transformed Carse’s life, community, and business.
Full of simple, practical insights and examples from Carse’s inspiring story, "Work Is Fun" will challenge you to completely rethink how you approach work, teaching you how to have fun through:

• Living out a powerful story
• Finding freedom in your job
• Taking pride in your work
• Slowing down and enjoying the present
• Incorporating play into your workplace
• Creating a strong team spirit
• Finding balance across changing business cycles
The truth is that you can be happy at work, and Carse’s company has proven that it makes good business sense, too. Young professionals, leaders, and entrepreneurs of all kinds will find encouragement and inspiration in Carse’s story to transform every area of their lives—and have fun while doing it.
About the Author
After being laid off in 2009, Steve Carse set out to create the best popsicles ever made. Inspired by Latin American paletas, he and his brother launched King of Pops, a small pushcart operation that has since grown into an Atlanta institution. Known for their handcrafted, all-natural flavors, King of Pops has become a staple at festivals, grocery stores, and neighborhood gatherings across the South. Carse’s insights on workplace culture and innovation have made him a sought-after speaker and thought leader in business.
