Making Positive Psychology Work Podcast

Today we’re talking to Dr. Peggy Kern, who is an associate professor at the Center for Positive Psychology at the University of Melbourne’s Graduate School of Education. Peggy’s research is collaborative in nature and draws on a variety of methodologies to examine questions around who thrives in life and why, including understanding and measuring healthy functioning, identifying individual and social factors impacting life trajectories, and systems informed approaches to wellbeing. She has published three books and over 100 peer-reviewed articles and chapters. In this week’s episode we explore the hot-off-the-research-desk findings of how workers are caring for their wellbeing after a year of continuous uncertainty and disruption, and the three simple skills we all need to thrive at work.
