According to Gallup, employees around the world are experiencing stress at an all-time-high level, and worry, anger, and sadness are still above pre-pandemic levels. If leaders don't pay attention to employee wellbeing, they're likely to be hit by high performer burnout and high quit rates. To make employee care a permanent part of the organizational culture, today's leaders need to think beyond physical wellbeing to capture the broader dimensions of overall wellbeing, capture data on how their employees are doing, and make employee care a permanent part of the organizational culture.
According to a new report from Gallup, the emotional side of work has not healed from the pressures of the last two years. Almost half of employees say they experienced stress a lot on the previous day.
