The Future of Work is Human

A company culture book for leaders meets a professional self-help book for the whole team, The Future is Human shares the essentials to creating a people-first workplace.

"The new way of working is already here, and The Future of Work is Human offers the tools to help organizations shift to a more holistic and human approach."

Adrian Peterson, employee experience program manager at HP

Ninety thousand hours.

That's how long the average person will spend at work over their lifetime. To put it another way, it's roughly one-third of our lives.

When you and your team think of time spent at work, what words would you like to come to mind?

Workplace communication experts Hannah L. Ubl and Lisa X. Walden believe jobs can inspire feelings like fulfillment, ease, and even fun. And as speakers and consultants focused on building workplaces that don't suck, they have over a decade of qualitative research to back it.

There's no denying the pandemic years brought challenges, from the Great Resignation and quiet quitting to hybrid work management. They also opened the door of possibility to a meaningful, long-term overhaul of the working worldand it's time we rose to meet it.

With a combination of lasting mindset shifts and practical tools, discover how to:

• go beyond "beating burnout" to center holistic well-being,
• build culture in the workplace while improving the bottom line,
• be generous with authentic praise and compassion, and
• lean into your person-ism and overcome perfectionism.

With the human-first practicality of Radical Candor and the heart-opening wisdom of The Art of Gathering, this unbeatably modern take on the workplace offers actionable steps for leading with intention and transforming your outlook (and by this time, you know we don't mean Microsoft).

We can do better than "returning to normal." We can create a working world where the Sunday Scaries are rare, people feel supported by their colleagues and leaders, and sentiments like "I really enjoy my work/job/company" are the new norm.

We can look back at those 90,000 hours spent at work with peace and maybe even pride, knowing that, for the most part, it was time well spent.

We can be a part ofand createa work world that unwaveringly puts people first.
