Fitting with Purdue University’s tripartite mission of learning, discovery, and engagement, the Purdue Center for Working Well (CWW) aims to be a cutting-edge center at the forefront of challenges facing modern workforces, and employees’ desire to “work well."
The core mission of the CWW is to develop a robust understanding of what “working well” means to employees and organizations—here, encompassing challenges with promoting personal well-being (e.g., reducing workforce burnout, promoting thriving), creating sustainable performance, adopting to grand challenges in modern organizations (e.g., societal issues; hybridization and automation of work), and cultivating positive and inclusive relationships at work and home broadly defined.

Speaking at the Center for Working Well's Distinguished Speaker Series, center director and the Daniels School’s Thomas J. Howatt Chair in Management Allie Gabriel explained how emotions serve as “data points,” providing critical insights into how we feel about our work and how we feel about the people we work with on a daily basis.
Their award proposal, “Intuitive Working™: A New Lens on Work Consumption,” contributes to the growing science-practice rebellion against 24/7 work cultures, offering a more sustainable work system that encourages employees and organizations to ask: When have employees done enough work?
