WELL-BEING IS NOT AN OUTCOME OR A GOAL that you achieve once. It’s informed by a dynamic interplay of life circumstances, our environment, and our everyday actions. Since we spend so much of our waking time engaged in our work, it has a tremendous influence on our well-being. Unfortunately, employee perceptions about their state of well-being and engagement with their work are at their lowest levels ever. This book is for anyone who has wondered if it is possible to feel more connected, aligned, and fulfilled in the work that occupies their daily lives – whether that’s a paid position, a caregiving role, or volunteer work. Using a powerful combination of compelling stories, research, and practical insights, this book invites you to: Envision what it means for you to live your best life in your work - Explore the dimensions of well-being that are most important to strengthen - Identify the purpose and values that inform your priorities, so you can focus on what matters most - Consider the relationships you most want to invest in, so you can give them primary attention - Rediscover the activities that leave you feeling fulfilled and engaged - Identify replenishing routines to renew and restore your energy, so you can truly do your best work Well At Work will help you identify how your current ways of working are not aligned to your desired levels of well-being and activate internal drivers to chart your course to more purposeful, connected, and fulfilling work that also supports your well-being.
