Workplace cynicism is one of the major but least-understood aspects of burnout. Cynicism isn’t due to some character flaw or being a “glass-half-empty” person. It originates from the workplace, not the individual. 8 ways to build a positive, rather than cynical, culture: 1) Attend to yourself first 2) Stop the cycle of negative emotional contagion 3) Encourage/practice empathy 4) Cultivate trust 5) Practice transparency 6) Give people more control 7) Remove uncertainty & ambiguity 8) Inject micro-doses of positivity hbr.org/2023/05/has-cy… By @KandiWiens
