Episode 183: What's Wrong With Work Hard Play Hard

Apple Podcasts | Spotify | Android Devices | RSS

In Our Conversation Today, We’re Exploring:

• The two scenarios that came up in our coaching sessions this week that led to this episode

• How a recent report from the U.S. Surgeon General can lead to better workplace culture, healthier employees, improved teamwork and performance, etc.

• The destructive role anxiety plays in the workplace and how some organizational leaders are making it worse

• Why “work hard, play hard” is one of Eric’s least favorite corporate phrases

Do you work hard and play hard?

Has that way of doing things led to feelings of exhaustion or problems in the workplace?

In episode 181, we referenced a report on The U.S. Surgeon General’s Framework for Workplace Mental Health & Well-Being, and we haven’t been able to stop thinking about it since.

As a result, we’re pulling from that report again today as we focus on a couple of things that have come up in our recent coaching sessions with our clients.
