Top 3 Takeaways
- Frame it up. The PERMA framework (Positive emotions, Engagement, Relationships, Meaning, Accomplishment) provides a roadmap for workplace wellbeing as relationships are the most predictive factor of employee health and retention.
- Meet the moment. Leaders can combat workplace loneliness and boost engagement by creating intentional moments for connection and by encouraging team members to leverage complementary strengths.
- Look again. Finding meaning at work is possible in any role by reframing tasks in terms of their impact on others and aligning work with personal values.
