Together We Thrive: Embedding Resilience into Workplace Culture
Together We Thrive (TWT), a multi-level program that transforms workplace culture to foster well-being, incorporates emotion regulation skills into leadership practices, team norms, and governance.
Higher education - an exemplar for nonprofit workplaces - faces mounting stress and inequities that disproportionately affect women. Traditional solutions neglect systemic drivers of bias and toxic workplace culture. TWT, grounded in decades of research on positive emotion regulation, embeds resilience into organizational systems. Through three tiers - leadership accountability, peer champions, and individual skill-building through a digital program - TWT leverages cutting-edge science to institutionalize collective well-being and create sustainable cultural change at Northwestern University and beyond.
