THE WORKPLACE PHD

Jaclyn Margolis, PhD

It is no surprise that many employees are struggling: Over half of the population is feeling burned out. Leaders are facing challenges in engaging and retaining their workers. The balance between work and home seems unattainable to many. And, a growing number of employees are emotionally exhausted. Yet, there is a way for things to be better. To get there, it is critical to understand the dynamics behind workplace motivations and challenges.

Jaclyn began The Workplace PhD to help employees and companies, through exploring trends in the workplace, explaining the psychology behind our motivation and decision making, and highlighting the academic research that underpins these complexities.  She does so through her blog with Psychology Today, her Instagram account, and her consulting & trainings with companies.
