Hope Is a Strategy? | Better Moments #5 | Jennifer Moss
Hope at work is not optimism. It is a goal worth reaching, more than one credible route forward and enough agency to move.
About this episode.
Hope at work is not optimism. It is a goal worth reaching, more than one credible route forward and enough agency to move.
In this seven-minute Better Moment, burnout researcher and workplace culture strategist Jennifer Moss draws on Charles Snyder's hope theory to explain why hope is a practical leadership strategy.
Jennifer looks at the growing hope gap among younger workers, why small completed goals build momentum and what micromanagement takes away: accomplishment, autonomy and intrinsic motivation.
Her warning is blunt. Leaders cannot ask people to invest in the future while telling them they may not have a place in it.
