Reach new levels of organisational productivity and achievement by redefining the phrase “workplace health”.

In Make Work Healthy, a team of distinguished organisational transformation professionals delivers an insightful how-to manual for improving organisational performance with a new approach to workforce management. The book offers organisations, leaders, and managers the knowledge, data, frameworks, and methodologies they need to radically transform their day-to-day operations into a sustainable and resilient business success model.

The authors focus on workplace health—in a broad sense—as a way of focusing organisational attention on culture, building work capacity, productivity, and sustainability. They explain the tangible business value that comes from focusing on wellbeing as well as the symbiotic relationship between organisational health and employee health. Make Work Healthy includes:

  • Strategies for moving beyond typical “wellness” initiatives, such as just addressing illness and absence reduction, to a more holistic understanding of “healthy work”.
  • Ways to locate, attract, recruit, and retain talent over the long term by aligning organisational goals with employee health.
  • Tactics to help managers of dispersed, hybrid, and remote teams manage feelings of pressure and isolation.

An indispensable, effective, and holistic new take on organisational and employee health, Make Work Healthy will earn a place in the hands of managers, executives, board members, and other business and human resources leaders who seek impressive gains in company productivity and fulfilment.
