Recommendation

Many employees aren’t happy in their roles – in fact, research shows that being at work adversely affects many workers’ mental health. The responsibility for changing this dynamic lies with leadership, best-selling author and leadership expert Dan Pontefract argues. He calls on leaders to learn how to support team members’ well-being – at work and in their personal lives – so they can achieve their full potential. Using the metaphor of a garden, Pontefract guides leaders in how to manage the factors that harm work performance and create the conditions required for teams to flourish.

Take-Aways

  • If you want to increase performance, give employees empathy and support.
  • Think like a gardener to help your employees “bloom,” both at work and in their personal lives.
  • Prioritize six improvements to help employees thrive at work.
