The importance of sustainable leadership towards employee engagement and wellbeing

Abstract

Running a sustainable workforce implies a combination of various factors including social responsibility, economic responsibility, transparency, innovation, and commitment. Key factors in a sustainable business should be considered a strong leadership and employee engagement. A main assumption is that a sustainable leadership significantly influences employee engagement and wellbeing, a strong leadership being critical for the success and sustainability of a business., A strong leadership can create a culture where collaboration and innovation are well values, fostering teamwork among employees while motivating their employees to work together towards a common goal. Adding data from the most recent surveys conducted by the biggest consulting firms about the workforce reimagined leads to a workplace where authentic and pertinent leadership styles are prone to spur engagement and wellbeing and, as recent studies show, the present and the future urge leadership to rethink the human resources approach, the employee experience, by focusing on people, collaboration, and close communication.
