Are we taking Employee Wellbeing too far?

Few people would deny the impact of well-being on the benefit of the organization. This approach tends to get pushed to the back burner for short-term gains (shareholder value?) over the long term growth and survival of the organization, especially when there are leaders or managers with a high need for controlling people and aggressive competitiveness. Hybrid or remote workplaces have only accelerated  these tensions, which then negatively impacts well-being, and the progress of the organization.  

With the above in mind, this article asks an extremely pertinent question, which is it's title.

From the article - "We need to reset the employer/employee relationship. We need to establish clear and fair principles for working in a remote or hybrid world. In a way which sets reasonable expectations for all parties and holds employers and employees to account."

I think the ability to leverage the employees's #strengths in their work will provide huge dividends to the organization and employees.
