Executive Coaching in the Era of Hybrid Work: Focusing on Leaders’ Self-Care and Mindfulness

Abstract

The rise of hybrid work has led to an increase in stress and fatigue for leaders. Chronic stress can result in poor physical and mental condition and can even cause burnout. As hybrid work becomes the norm, the development of leaders with vitality is essential in order to build sustainable organizations. This study proposes a human resource strategy that focuses on self-care, and suggests that designing a program utilizing coaching can be effective in developing leaders. By offering self-care coaching to leaders, they can learn how to take care of themselves and become role models for their team. This will have a positive impact on the entire team and can lead to a ripple effect of fostering an organizational culture with psychological safety, thereby building sustainable organizations.
