Synopsis

Through a straightforward, science-based approach, Leading for Wellness: How to Create a Team Culture Where Everyone Thrives explains the steps to become a Generator—the type of leader who people want to work for and organizations want to hire—by leading in a way that fosters trust and positive connections with employees. This book is based on two in-depth studies conducted by the authors, where they found that the keys to employee satisfaction, wellbeing, retention, and productivity were found in the behavior of leaders and the environment those leaders cultivated.

Written by experienced industrial/organizational psychologists Dr. Patricia Grabarek and Dr. Katina Sawyer and packed with real-life stories to add context, this book explores topics including addressing the mismatch in the definition of wellness between employees and employers; focusing on the tone leaders set at work, as opposed to time they spend at work; and crafting work to support life, instead of the other way around, to support and respond to employees' unique needs.

At a time when employee morale has never been lower, Leading for Wellness is an essential listen for current and aspiring business leaders and managers seeking exclusive data-based insights on how to solve one of the most pressing problems in business today.
