Wellbeing
Protecting the sustainable capacity of people so performance isn't paid for with health.
Behaviors
- Models real time off
- Watches workload, not just output
- Normalizes asking for help early
Anti-patterns
- Hustle worn as identity
- Perks instead of workload fixes
- Rewarding always-on availability
Reinforce it with
- Coverage plans for vacations
- Workload check-ins in 1:1s
- Leaders logging off visibly
Wellbeing is how a team stays good for years, not quarters.
