Recommendation

Human connection is essential to workplace success. Genuine, trust-based work relationships increase job satisfaction and enable employees to perform at their highest level. Deloitte chief well-being officer Jen Fisher and researcher Anh Phillips lay out a strong business case for fostering workplace relationships, prioritizing self-care, becoming intentional about technology usage and consciously building well-being into your work processes.

Take-Aways

  • Authentic connection and meaningful workplace relationships nourish psychological well-being.
  • Relentless striving to increase productivity and incorporate new technologies creates less humane work environments.
  • Increase social bonds to combat the negative effects of technological dependency.
