Recognizing the Value and Types of Rest

All rest is not created equal. Having an awareness of various kinds of rest helps individuals
and groups understand its importance. Studies show that rest is critical to your professional growth, including “If you take 11 or more of your vacation days, you are more than 30% more likely to receive a raise” (Achor & Gielan, “The Data-Driven Case for Vacation,” Harvard Business Review, July 2016). Participants will evaluate which types of rest are needed in different working contexts and your personal rest habits and preferences. (60 min workshop)
