Upskill Your Managers
An innovative and scalable training solution for today’s workplace
Managers are exhausted. Between the unrealistic and ever-expanding workloads to increasing business complexity and performance demands, they are hitting a wall. And while all employees can relate to this untenable situation, managers have the added responsibility of supporting their team members. The massive shift to virtual and hybrid working arrangements have complicated matters further.
Throw Your Manager a Lifeline
We’ve all been told at some point in our career to leave work at work and leave our personal lives at home. Yet, it doesn’t take long to realize that advice is outdated when we carry a computer in our pocket and colleagues, family, and friends expect us to be reachable at any moment. It’s simply unrealistic to think that life will never interfere with work, that work will never intrude on life. And since the quest for a perfect work-life balance is failing, we believe that flexibility and striving for work-life alignment is a commonsense alternative.
An Evidence-Based Solution
Our Creating Work-Life Alignment e-learning course is the result of a collaboration between Dion Leadership and Work Life Help (Dr. Ellen Kossek and Dr. Leslie Hammer).
Kossek (Basil S. Turner Distinguished Professor of Management at Purdue University’s Krannert School of Management) and Hammer (Professor of Psychology in the Department of Psychology at Portland State University and a Senior Scientist in the Oregon Institute of Occupational Health Sciences at Oregon Health & Science University) have been researching and writing about work-life issues for nearly three decades.
Dion Leadership is dedicated to helping organizations acquire the skills they need to onboard, develop, and mobilize all levels of employees and create an environment where people are put in a situation to do their best work.
More Than Half of all Workers Feel Burnt Out!
Employee burnout has only gotten worse over the last year: more than half (52%) of respondents are feeling burned out, and more than two-thirds (67%) believe the feeling has worsened over the course of the pandemic.
