Our Vision
If change never stops, "getting through it" is a strategy built on the lowest expectations you could have for yourself and the people you worked hard to hire. Given what you spend on hiring, developing, and evaluating your workforce, your team is quite capable.
We have a different approach: Change powered by joy.
10+ years of researching joy in the workplace reveals this: Joy at work isn't about fun. At least thatās not what people tell us. Instead it's about bringing your skills, personality, and energy to the hard problem you were hired to solve. Even better when you're growing alongside others doing the same.
What could be a more natural and personal struggle than change?
The Change Decision is ranked among Richmond, Virginia's fastest-growing companies with clients across the world and the team behind Joy at Work Thinking. Change powered by joy is practical, measurable, and gets you the culture you want, even for the most difficult change -- mergers, job loss, moving goal posts, and zero energy. Let us show you how.
Change is a normal part of work. You may as well be great at it!

How much does the success of your business depend on your people? What happens when you can’t find people with the expertise you need? What happens when you lose great people to your competition? What happens when your people are checked out, not getting along, not interested in growing? What happens when your people expect more than you can give them?
This is the case for Joy at Work.
WelcomeĀ to the Research.Ā We're investigating this hypothesis:Ā
Joy at WorkĀ is a measurable state of being (for both an individual and an organization) that indicates to what extent the culture of an organization contributes to its success.
Our approach is to interview senior leaders at for-profit companies, non-profit, and government agencies of all sizes and apply Grounded Theory to understand the relationship across the already identified 10 Dimensions of Joy at Work.

Hi! We're Roxanne and Ed, founders of The Change Decision
After decades working in hyper-competitive corporate environments, we experienced the unexpected: True joy at work.
It started with us. We made a shift to be intentional about the experience of our team as we all worked toward our goals. This shaped everything we said and did. For the first time as leaders, we knew real followership and adversity only made us all stronger, every time. The secret: Joy.
Since then we've been researching and creating resources so you can create joy in your workplace, even in the most unlikely circumstances.
