Episode 2 of the new season of The Floorplan is out now. Are you thriving at work? What does it mean to thrive? And how can thriving at work help you thrive in life?
In this episode, I speak to the amazing Professor Gretchen Spreitzer about the value of thriving at work. We also discuss why coworking spaces matter in today’s landscape of work, how meetings impact us, and how to manage your workday to thrive.
And, Matt Webber and I talk about why employees might not be thriving at work and how to make it better.
Gretchen is the Keith E. and Valerie J. Alessi Professor of Business Administration, Professor of Management and Organizations Associate Dean for Executive and Corporate Relations at the Ross School of Business at the University of Michigan and is one of the world's leading authorities on employee empowerment and leadership development, particularly within the context of organisational change and decline.
She is the co-author of several books including How to be a Positive Leader (2014) with Jane Dutton, Handbook of Positive Organizational Scholarship with Kim Cameron, The Leader's Change Handbook: An Essential Guide to Setting Direction and Taking Action (1999) with Jay Conger and Edward Lawler, The Future of Leadership: Speaking to the Next Generation (2001) with Warren Bennis and Thomas Cummings, and A Company of Leaders: Five Disciplines for Unleashing the Power in Your Workforce (2001) with Robert Quinn.
