Brave New Workplace

Brave New Workplace argues that organizations should focus on creating environments in which employees can flourish, rather than relying on the resiliency of workers to withstand difficult working conditions. Author Julian Barling outlines 10 elements for a healthy and productive workplace--leadership, autonomy, meaning, belonging, growth, fairness, clarity, recognition, safety, and physical environment--and illustrates how these elements can be readily implemented and how they can increase levels of work performance and employee well-being.
