About Kent Frazier
He invested his past 25 years attending to some of our most exciting, frightening, celebratory, exhausting, uplifting, and soul-crushing conversations that they have as human beings. Conversations in the fierce crucible where many of us spend the vast majority of our waking hours, attention, and energy (at least here in the US).
Conversations about their work (and it’s impact on their families, friends, and their own sense of self).
In their current culture, many of us find it more and more challenging to balance the pull of their work, the pull to be with the people who matter most to them in our lives, and the pull for some quiet, reflective and rejuvenating alone time, unplugged from everyone and everything in this often frenetically paced world.
AS THEY LOOK AT THE DATA, THEY FIND IT REASONABLE TO HOLD THE PERSPECTIVE THAT MANY OF THE WAYS THEY’RE WORKING NO LONGER WORK FOR MANY PEOPLE:
-Workplace stress is estimated to cost the U.S. economy more than $500 billion dollars, and, each year, 550 million work days are lost due to stress on the job.
-Half of Millennials and 75% of Gen Z’ers have left their jobs for mental health reasons.
-Depression is the leading cause of disability on the planet.
-The annual global economic burden of mental illness is $2.5 trillion, costing businesses an estimated $100 billion.
-Health problems associated with job-related anxiety account for more deaths each year than Alzheimer’s disease or diabetes.
ATTENDING TO THIS ASPECT OF THEIR LIVES HAS BECOME THE FOCUS OF HIS LIFE’S WORK.
