As business, life and health coach, I propose an innovative holistic approach to business coaching by proposing business and HR strategies and models for reflection during sessions to identify customised solutions to organisational situations, also considering the life and well-being concerns of the person. Coaching thus becomes a learning experience, which raises awareness of personal potential and strengths. Owner and founder of The Empathic Listener, I also offer workshops, organised in partnership with expert colleagues, on people management strategies, structured one-to-one meetings, stress management, mental health and well-being, and even nutritional foundations to reduce the impact of stress. A positive outlook and a feeling of well-being are key to high performance, creative solutions, productivity and success. Website: www.theempathiclistener.com

THE IMPACT OF SOCIAL ISOLATION ON ENGAGEMENT IN REMOTE-WORKING PUBLIC AND PRIVATE EMPLOYEES. By Therese Dharmakan-Pistilli. McGraw-Hill 2022. A book that offers a people-centred approach to remote-working by exploring the challenges people face when working from home. Poor organisational communication, work intensification and inflexible work monitoring can lead to social isolation and a drop in employee engagement levels. Focus on how employees are experiencing remote-working, and willingness to hear and evaluate their suggestions for improvements can make the difference in terms of organisational success and productivity. Recommendations include: - the right to unplug at the end of a working day to ensure work-life balance; - flexible work arrangements based on tasks and goals, rather than on specific working hours; - an effective and transparent organisational communication strategy. The study finally proposes a remote work model designed to both identify employee engagement levels and strengthen any necessary areas.
