Music. Welcome back to Wellness Beyond the Surface — Reimagining Workplace Well-Being. In this episode, Damalie Akuamoah argues that burnout is a leadership signal and that well-being must be a business and leadership imperative, not just an HR initiative. She reviews research showing the business returns of prioritizing well-being, explains how leaders can embed capacity management and boundaries into how work is designed, and shares examples of organizations that improved engagement and retention by treating well-being as a core operating priority. Damalie closes with practical questions for leaders and a simple challenge: change one decision — about priorities, recognition, or meetings — to consider its impact on people’s well-being. Until next time.
