The power of putting psychological strengths into work

Podcast

21 Nov

I had a lovely conversation with Dr. Ozge Kantas of PsychoSocial around applying our psychological strengths at work.

Psychological strengths are positive traits that are personally fulfilling. They promote adjustment and adaptation and can be applied on purpose to achieve our full potential. Noticing our strengths and using them at work in a balanced way contribute to our emotional wellbeing, help build satisfying relationships, and increase our performance.

You can listen to our conversation on Spotify.
