“Redesign Work to Unlock Wellbeing and High Performance” with Rachel Cooke, Founder of Lead Above Noise & Host of the Modern Mentor podcast.

How can leaders redesign work to boost both engagement and well-being?

Why is “fit for purpose” more important than “best practice” when it comes to designing work?

My guest in this episode is Rachel Cooke, Founder of Lead Above Noise & Host of the Modern Mentor podcast.

During our conversation Rachel and I discuss:

  • Why today’s leaders are under greater pressure than ever before, especially with expanding spans of control and higher expectations.
  • How leaders can increase engagement and embed wellbeing directly into how work actually happens
  • The importance of asking those closest to the work to redesign the work
  • How to create custom solutions for your team by seeking “right practices” rather than following industry “best practices.”
