Social impact of participation, inclusion and psychological safety in the workplace

How democratic is your workplace? And does your workplace vote also influence your political vote?

2024 was an election year, both politically and socially. The ideal opportunity to question these movements!

In this white paper, read more about how seen and heard employees feel.

Taboos in the workplace

Taboos are of all times. They are accompanied by a range of emotions, such as shame and pain. Yet sometimes they suddenly come to the forefront or are broken when people decide to do speak out. Numerous taboos exist in the workplace as well, such as the #Metoo issue and the stories surrounding toxic leadership.

Mental health in the workplace: The role of managers in absenteeism prevention.

Workplace risk factors, such as stress and lack of support, worsen mental health. Managers play a crucial role in prevention but face challenges like stigma and lack of knowledge. This study explores the experiences of managers and employees and offers practical insights to improve workplace mental health.

Download our whitepaper for practical insights on effectively contributing to better workplace mental health.

The workplace as the best learning environment. Also for blue-collar workers?

A lifetime of learning: while this is considered second nature for knowledge workers, it is less obvious for blue-collar workers. At least, that's often assumed. But is this really the case? And if so, does it only apply to craftsmanship, or is a lifelong learning path also possible in terms of soft skills?

Co-crafting for a successful return to work after burnout.

Less than 40% of managers have the necessary knowledge to guide employees returning to work, while nearly 90% of employees see their role as crucial in the process. Burnout reintegration is complex and requires involvement from both sides. How does your organization approach this? Download the whitepaper for more insights. (The white paper is in Dutch but will be translated soon).

The Road to sustainable business

What makes an absenteeism intervention work?

Lack of empirically supported interventions for well-being and absenteeism in the workplace.

The whitepaper addresses the following two research questions:
1. When is a return-to-work considered successful, and what can we learn from this for the prevention of absenteeism in general?
2. What can a manager do to reduce absenteeism and ensure the health and well-being of employees?

In collaboration with partners bpost, Mensura, and B-Tonic (a subsidiary of Baloise)

The white paper is in Dutch.

Sustainable HRM & Leadership

Today, the role of Human Resource Management (HRM) is ensuring human sustainability at the workplace. We must amplify purpose through dynamic leadership, managing complexity, and common good actions. HRM and leadership drive organizational sustainability for societal development.

Can HR lead sustainability transformation?

Value Creation: A Dialogue on Models and Methods

Paper nr. 7. Value creation is the primary aim of any organization and is inherent to sustainable development. In 2020, ABIS - The Academy of Business in Society and Antwerp Management School jointly organized the Value Creation Roundtable as an exchange of knowledge, competences or ideas on sustainable transformation and positive impact amongst important sustainability actors.

In this paper different concepts of value are defined: Stakeholder value, Blended value, Sustainable value, Shared value, and Integrated value. The paper also zooms in on the methodologies that can be used to create value, for example, the Sustainable Development Goals.

'Sustainable Strategy: The Evolution towards Integrated Value and Thriving'

Widespread societal and economic transformation will be needed to reach a sustainable future. The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) reflect very well on the global challenges we face. But for many businesses, the SDGs are a topic of discussion rather than a strategic element.

In this white paper Prof. Dr Wayne Visser and Jan Beyne talk about a sustainable strategy needed for businesses to survive.

The exchange of their knowledge, competencies and ideas on sustainable transformation and the positive impact between key sustainability actors resulted in a report.

Employee silence: why and what are we silent about at work?

The theme of 'employee participation' is more topical today than ever in management discourse. Organizations are becoming flatter, hierarchical bureaucracies are being phased out, leadership is being more 'shared' and included outside the hierarchy. This also creates expectations towards employees: they need to make their voices heard more and more. Employee participation is thus no longer something purely 'desired', but rather something that is 'required' (Knoll et al., 2016).

In this white paper (in Dutch) we outline the results and analysis, based on a survey of 1598 employees.

Bringing the User Back in the Building

Investors are currently obliged to take ESG (Environment, Social, Governance) issues into consideration as part of their fiduciary duty. As such, it becomes increasingly important to identify sustainable investments that hold financial value as well. Moreover, the Covid-19 pandemic proved that real estate has a crucial role to play in societal sustainability. In the real estate sector, not much is known about ESG so far. This has a lot to do with the obfuscated conceptualization and diverging measurement of ESG.

In this white paper, we discuss the value of ESG for real estate, both for investors and real estate professionals.

Impact COVID-19 on human capital in organizations

In April 2020, in the midst of a coronary crisis, we launched a survey with organizations on the impact of COVID-19 on their human capital. Nothing led us to believe that, more than a year and 5 surveys later, we would still be researching the impact of the pandemic on work and careers - not only among employers, but also among employees. In this research report, you can read more about our main findings. (in Dutch)

Kickstarting your Corporate-Startup Collaborations

LiZeT: Getting started with sustainable careers in self-organizing teams

The team we work with is a decisive factor in how we experience our jobs. Therefore, your team is an essential key to a sustainable career. Yet, until now, this has remained underexposed as a context for career development, both in the academic literature and in the career policies of organizations. With this ESF "Innovation through Exploration" project we wanted to explore this further. We developed the LiZeT toolkit with the aim of actively engaging team members in their career development. More specifically, LiZeT helps teams to learn to organize themselves (in Dutch).

Sustainable Transformation: a bird’s-eye view using organization and strategy theories

Paper nr. 5. In this whitepaper, we take a bird’s eye view on the concept of sustainable transformation and explore existing definitions and perspectives to create a deeper understanding of how organizations act on sustainable transformation. By introducing two scenarios for sustainable transformation - weak and strong sustainable transformation - informed by organizational theories, we try to answer our main research question: 'What is the potential contribution of various organizational and strategy theories for the sustainable transformation concept?'

How hybrid will we be working tomorrow?

Working from home seems to be here to stay: a growing number of companies are closing down their offices, allowing their employees to work from home. A hybrid office environment, combining working from home and at the office, is best designed based on the needs of the user.

Bringing the user back in the building: an analysis of ESG in Real Estate and a framework to guide future research

Investors are currently obliged to take ESG (Environment, Social, Governance) issues into consideration as part of their fiduciary duty. As such, it becomes increasingly important to identify sustainable investments that hold financial value as well. A sector where this is especially underdeveloped is real estate. This has a lot to do with the obfuscated conceptualization of ESG. This article identifies key gaps in literature and practice, and provides a framework to further the understanding of how ESG factors can add societal and financial value in the real estate sector.

The office environment as a lever for well-being and productivity (Dutch)

Together with knowledge partner NNOFCARE, Antwerp Management School gains insight into the impact that the office environment can have on the productivity and well-being of the employee. As part of this, an overview was made of the scientific literature on the subject, and an online survey was launched in the autumn of 2018 among more than 1.000 Belgian employees. This white paper reports on three cases from different sectors: consultancy (Deloitte), government (Flemish Community) and financial sector (KBC). In Dutch.
