Good Work
Autor Kathryn Pageen Limba Engleză Paperback – 6 apr 2026
We're facing an epidemic of burnout, loneliness and quiet despair at work - not because people are weak, but because our systems are stretched and outdated. Despite more wellness apps and flexibility policies than ever, we've never felt more disconnected from meaning, purpose and each other.
Good Work argues that real change won't come from quick fixes, motivational quotes or coping strategies. It comes from reimagining the way we work - together. Drawing on decades of psychological research and stories from frontline teams to global organisations, organisational psychologist Dr Kat Page reveals a bold new blueprint for creating work that protects, fuels and connects people. Learn how to:
- Strengthen your personal wellbeing while contributing to a healthier shared culture
- Build connected, high performing teams where people speak honestly, think boldly and thrive as highly connected communities
- Create momentum for change, even when you don't hold the power
- Navigate workplace stress while maintaining performance, connection and career momentum
