The book of flourishing

With a focus on organisations, employee flourishing refers to a state where employees experience holistic well-being and thrive in various aspects of their work life. It goes beyond mere job satisfaction or fulfilment of basic needs and encompasses elements such as personal growth, job satisfaction, meaningful work, positive relationships with colleagues, a sense of purpose, and a balance between work and personal life.

Flourishing employees are not only productive and efficient but also experience a sense of vitality, creativity, fulfilment and flow in their roles. For employees to flourish, businesses must create an environment where individuals can maximise their potential, contribute meaningfully to organisational goals, and experience overall satisfaction and well-being in their professional lives.

For us, flourishing people bring net productivity benefits to organisations and their whole selves to life. Want to know more about flourishing and why it matters? Our partners at SHAPE wrote a little book all about it that you can explore.
