With the rise of burnout and chronic stress it is becoming increasingly important to invest in a culture of manager support that strongly encourages and supports self-care.

Having this support in place leads to managers extending the same support to their teams and ultimately creating a happier, more productive, and well-balanced workforce.

Providing learning and training opportunities to instill mindsets which generate energy and expand personal capacity is one way to equip managers with critical skills to succeed in the future of work.

Given the world of work is moving towards a relational and holistic employee experience– managers play a key role in shaping the care-based narrative of how employees are feeling and functioning at work.

It doesn’t start with identifying ideal behaviors, but rather it starts with fostering the mindsets from which desired behaviors can flow from an authentic place.

The science and lens of positive psychology has proven to be a cornerstone for enabling individuals and organizations to flourish. But how can you take advantage of positive psychology in your workplace?

Join Mandy Clark-Jesewitz  (LinkedIn profile) Strategy Advisor, Well-Being and EX and find out.

Join this webinar  to:

  • Learn more about the pathways to flourishing within positive psychology
  • Gain an understanding of how cultivating manager mindsets can unlock organisational care
  •  Better understand how positive psychology can help your workforce and organisation
  •  Receive recommendations on how to implement positive psychology into your organisation
