I agree with the position that: “For businesses to thrive in the service of a thriving world, more attention must be paid to well-being staff. The notion of personal fulfillment focuses on the fundamental feeling of being connected to oneself, to others and to the world. It can be developed through mindfulness and other reflective practices, which become essential to effective leadership. » Last summer, I was a resident advisor for the General Management Summer Institute. As intimidating and overwhelming as I thought this job was, it was a great learning experience for me. Right after an exhausting and exhilarating first week, all the students surprised me by applauding me for being the best advisor in the program. Not only did it energize me, but it also made me feel more connected to the students. This made me invest more in my work and do even better, which was followed by more praise and recognition not only from students but also from my supervisors. The feeling of being valued and appreciated for all the hard work, even at the expense of sleep, was unprecedented. This Stanford experience, among others, led me to believe that positive encouragement, assessment combined with impactful jobs that tend toward corporate sustainability are the best means to personal fulfillment. We see many high-level executives trying to understand and implement this personal wellness strategy. being aimed at thriving businesses. Dr. Nelson, clinical psychologist, best-selling author, and business trial consultant, suggests that “when you prioritize compassion, profits will follow.” Another good example is when the CEO of Alcoa, the world's largest aluminum producer, Paul O'Neil, realizing the major concern of middle of paper......the break I had this summer, working at Stanford and Denver, refreshed me and motivated me to try again. And this time, I finally feel connected with myself and with the people here, I enjoy the classes I'm taking and I love the school environment again. Suddenly, the weather no longer seems harsh and the place is no longer depressing. This has made me more engaged in my classes and helps me perform better. Additionally, I am grateful for my education and find it to have a purpose. To conclude, while thinking about sustainability or a thriving world, I believe, from my personal experiences as well as my research, that a sense of purpose and joy drives us to accomplish work. much better. We absolutely must not forget that people are the most valuable asset. Managing them and ensuring they flourish is challenging but important for a thriving world..
