Managing To Flourish

Flourishing is an optimal state of wellbeing where an individual feels positive emotions and functions well psychologically and socially. Management students concern themselves with this concept because organizations where employees describe themselves as flourishing experience higher profitability and customer loyalty. This session will review the theoretical foundation of the Short Form Flourishing Assessment and options for using it to help students reflect on their own state of wellbeing, and learn how they as future managers can create organizational conditions where employees have opportunities to flourish. Participants will take the assessment and receive resources for using the assessment in their classrooms.
