Boundary setting plays an important role at work. Boundaries give us a sense of control/agency, clarify our responsibilities, preserve our energy & let us live our values & standards. It's not just about individual boundaries but how we understand & support each other's boundaries as a team. Often "boundaries" means time boundaries or home/life balance, but there are multiple other boundaries we should take account of as well.
