How can teams work better together? When did we start straying from a life aligned with our values? How do we become more engaged at work? And most importantly, how can we get back there? In modern workplaces our teams are lacking connection, people are going through the motions to get work done but engagement with the company, the work and their colleagues is absent. Looking through the lens of a Sherpa, discover why our modern workplaces are enabling disconnection, why the holy grail of employee engagement is so elusive, and learn practical techniques to develop connection, collaboration and purpose at work. Regardless of the talent you gather, unless they support each other, communicate and know where they are going, they will not achieve success. The ‘Lessons from a Sherpa’ combine life lessons with knowledge of Western workplaces and experience buildingteams. Entertaining, thought provoking and backed by research, this guide provides tools to build team engagement, improve mental health and initiate change.
Jade Lee is a fan of travelling and the great outdoors, she has been from Antarctica to Iceland and much in between. She confesses to being a bit all or nothing in everything she does; not only did she trek to Everest Base Camp with her Sherpa, Gobinda…she married him! Having experienced and witnessed the best and worst treatment that a workplace can provide, Jade is obsessed with increasing employee fulfilment and works with organisations to empower teams to work better together. She practises and instructs yoga, is passionate about mindfulness, sustained mental health and employee wellbeing.
