Impact Players

A lack of fulfilment in the workplace is not a product of overwork but perhaps a lack of challenge and IMPACT. People desire to be engaged and challenged. They want to feel that they are using their full potential… stretching, learning and growing! Work that is uninspiring or unengaging leads to a lack of fulfilment. On top of this, being that we spend the majority of our time at work this lack of fulfilment can come home with us. Liz discusses why it’s important to challenge workers and how. Wouldn’t it be better to be excited about going to work and energised after leaving work?
