Seeking Fairness at Work

Cracking the New Code of Greater Employee Engagement, Retention & Satisfaction

By Hanna hasl-kelchner, mba, jd

Seeking Fairness at Work examines the unwritten rules at work—rules that, when broken, create organizational dysfunction, and how ethical leadership can infuse more fairness into the workplace culture to neutralize these toxic norms.

Recognized business strategist and Journal of Business Ethics Education editorial board member Hanna Hasl-Kelchner, MBA, JD identifies the five most common workplace norms that betray fairness, leaving employees feeling dispirited, disengaged, and headed for the door by examining the social psychology of how our basic human motivations intersect with the implied workplace social contract.

Using evidence-based science, academic research, interviews, and real-life stories, Hasl-Kelchner exposes why traditional means of improving workplace behavior typically fail and introduces over 100 Fairness Factors to help management succeed.

By merging organizational psychology with the practical aspects of workplace dynamics she creates an actionable five-part framework filled with practical leadership tips to empower more employee engagement and retention, including chapters on how to:

• Rebuild Trust with More Self-Awareness
• Improve Relationship Chemistry with More Empathy
• Make Genuine Accountability a Cornerstone
• Maintain a Cultural Safety Net
• Mend the Structural Safety Net
