Brave New Workplace

After a period of tremendous upheaval, it is necessary for organizations to transform alongside their employees and welcome new ways of working. While it is impossible to predict which changes will be successful, it is crucial for leaders to now ask: what should work look like to achieve productive, healthy, and safe organizations? In Brave New Workplace, Julian argues that we should focus on creating environments in which employees can flourish.

“Written in an enjoyable narrative style, the book clearly achieves its goal of offering evidence based direction for organizational professionals to facilitate the creation of environments where workers can thrive and succeed.“
