Imagine creating a workplace where people feel that their job is a refuge from their personal challenges. The "great resignation" was a clear demonstration that the world of work is calling for change and requires a transformation. The road to transforming the world of work rests in our ability to utilize positive approaches to change, develop positive leaders, and develop values-driven cultures that bring out the best in our people.
Peak performance is only possible when people in organizations are in a positive state. However, many of our current leadership approaches and HR practices are rooted in programs established in the early industrial era that are more based upon compliance and control. What is needed are organizations where employees can frequently collaborate, innovate, and team with other talented people. When positive leadership is demonstrated, organizations will become magnets for top talent, and they will have the ability to retain this talent, leading to extraordinary performance and success. Let's unleash the talents of our people!
