Employee well-being isn’t about perks - it’s about system design.

When leaders treat burnout as a personal weakness instead of an organizational output, they destroy the very trust they need to scale.

For CEOs, founders, and global team architects, employee well-being isn't an initiative - it's a signal of leadership system health.

"The only way to create a balanced life is to balance work through self-management and self-organization.
