Hello everyone. I'm
Ashley O'Donoghue
from TU Dublin Graduate
Business School
and in this session,
we're going to look at
how leaders influence
employee well-being.

We'll look at three things.
What is employee well-being?
How do leaders influence
employee well-being at work?
And why is this important
for us to know?

What is employee work
related well-being?
Well, employee work related
well-being is a state.
When we are working, we are
typically in one of four
states of well-being.
The first one, job satisfaction
and engagement are positive
well-being states
and workaholism
and burnout are negative
ill-being states.
Employee well-being is
a work related state with
corresponding levels
of energy and emotion.
And you'll see for
each dimension
of work related well-being,
they bring with them
a level of energy,
either low activation
or high activation,
and a level of emotions
pleasant or unpleasant,
positive or negative.
For example, if we look
at employee engagement,
which is the Holy Grail
in terms of the
state of well-being.
When we look at
employee engagement,
it's a state of high activation,
high energy, and
pleasant emotion.
So, we know with employee
engagement in terms of
the emotions associated with
employee engagement,
they're positive emotions,
feeling excited, enthusiastic,
energized, happy, and pleased.

When we look at the factors
influencing employee
work-related well-being,
it's an evaluative state.
We make cognitive
judgments about our work,
whether they're
positive or negative,
whether it's pleasant or not,
whether it's safe or not.
Because work-related well-being
is an evaluative state,
we know then that
stimuli from the external
work environment can
influence our emotions in
the workplace and can influence
our state of well-being.
