Transformational Wellbeing: Conscious Leadership and Digital Mental Health Ecosystems in Hybrid South African Workplaces
This study explores how conscious leadership and digital mental health ecosystems interact to shape employee experience in hybrid South African workplaces. Situated within questions of leadership, organisation development and human-centred organisational systems, the research considers how transformational wellbeing might be understood as an organisational responsibility rather than an individual intervention.
The intellectual themes include transformational wellbeing, conscious leadership, organisational wellbeing, employee experience, hybrid workplaces, digital mental health ecosystems and human-centred organisational systems.

Learning, Capability & the Future of L&D
