The Workforce is Unwell: Understanding True Well-Being in the Modern Workplace

About the webinar:

The Workforce Is Unwell

• A Framework for Leaders Who Dare to Care Differently
• Building True Well-Being in the Modern Workplace

“Nobody wants to work anymore.”

We’ve all heard it. Maybe in a news headline. Maybe from an older relative. Maybe whispered to yourself while struggling to sleep on Sunday night. 

People want to work—but not like this.

Gallup recently found that 79% of the global workforce is disengaged, costing the economy $8.9 trillion annually.

Burnout isn't a badge of honor. Hustling isn't a growth strategy. And the leadership playbook we inherited was written for a workforce that no longer exists.

In this candid keynote, Anti-Career Coach® Danielle Roberts traces how three seismic cultural shifts damaged worker well-being—and offers a practical, psychology-backed framework for companies ready to restore it.

Drawing from her own journey through loss, layoffs, and radical reinvention, she introduces the 3 Cs Framework—the human-centered principles that help teams thrive across generations.

Attendees will leave with:

• An understanding of why the old success playbook no longer works (and the cultural forces that broke it)
• The 3 Cs Framework: A memorable, actionable model for building engagement, trust, and innovation
• Real-time audience engagement: interactive reflection prompts and social media moments for levity and connection
• Simple practices they can implement immediately on Monday to bridge performance and well-being
