This book is a perfect resource for university researchers, teachers and managers who aspire to improve quality of working life through the latest trends in employee wellbeing research. Concepts including happiness at work, engagement, work passion, resilience, work enchantment, compassion or healthy workplaces have emerged as central research topics to promote more humane organizations.
Many important concepts not normally included in human resource management books are covered and connected here to employee well-being, including compassion, emotional intelligence, strategic and compassionate leadership, organizational trust, transparency, work-life balance, and digital technologies, among others.
With this book, the authors try to shed light on how to humanize the workplace from different approaches and domains, offering advances for research and key implications for practice. Authors are renamed researchers specialised in human resource management and organizational behavior from diverse universities.
The aim of this book is to emphasize the relevance of re-thinking workplaces and organizations in order to improve employee well-being, and transform dehumanized workplaces into meaningful and empowering ones.
