With the holidays on the doorstep after a challenging year, we felt it would be the perfect time to talk about the affective leader’s own mental health and wellness. This week we consider how the leader replenishes and recharges and looks ahead to success in the coming year, by:  taking time to decompress, enjoying guilty pleasures, reflecting positively, planning for post-Covid-19, and pondering upcoming challenges. Enjoying the holiday this year will be key to well- being and success in the coming year.

Establishing a workable balance between being engaged effectively at work and invested supportively at home is important for today’s workers, especially during a pandemic. This week we explore five keys to achieving this balance:  establishing a plan, living in the moment, respecting others’ lived experiences, accepting occasional outliers, and impacting the greater community.  Affective leaders know how to encourage and support employees in seeking a work-home balance.

Affective leaders understand that the resilience of employees is an integral part of positive mental health and well-being.  This week we focus on five keys to fostering resilience:  conveying a growth mindset, staying the course, learning from mistakes, embracing change enthusiastically, and fostering resilient teams.  Strengthening the resilience of employees enhances the health and success of the overall organization.

With the challenges posed by the pandemic and the holidays fast approaching, there is no time like the present to discuss workplace wellness.  This week we introduce wellness in five key areas: demonstrating compassion, developing resilience, creating the optimal work environment, encouraging home/work balance, and modeling healthy leadership and self-care.   Affective leaders know that well-being in the workplace leads to positive employee morale and sustained success in the organization.
