The workplace is the fifth-leading cause of death in the U.S., according to Stanford Professor Jeffrey Pfeffer. Yet, organizations put the burden of stress-reduction on workers - forcing a never ending, life-shortening bounce-back cycle. Citing gripping examples and research, Thallner will make an engaging and compelling case that organizations have the power and responsibility to dramatically reduce stress, lengthen life, and achieve their business objectives.
Organizations are purpose built to find and eliminate problems. But, could this fundamental design “feature” be a fatal flaw that keeps organizations from becoming truly prepared for the next big challenge? Thallner explores why excessive focus on closing gaps ends up limiting organizational innovation and hastens worker burnout. Instead, he proposes re-thinking the gap-closing cycle altogether by examining the questions we ask in the first place. Better questions create better cultures and outcomes.
