    Moementum, Inc.

    In a world where organizations strive for greatness, the people within them hold the key to success. Despite numerous studies, books, and training programs, leaders continue to struggle with unlocking the full potential of their workforce, resulting in low employee engagement, high turnover, burnout, and toxic cultures.

    In a world where organizations strive for greatness, the people within them hold the key to success. Despite numerous studies, books, and training programs, leaders continue to struggle with unlocking the full potential of their workforce, resulting in low employee engagement, high turnover, burnout, and toxic cultures. It is evident that a transformation is needed to make work truly good for people.



    Renowned author and consultant/coach Moe Carrick draws on her 35 years of experience both inside and outside organizations to present a refreshing and honest roadmap for leaders seeking to create a workplace fit for human life. When Work is Good begins with the acknowledgment that the global pandemic of 2020 reshaped the way we work forever. While we recognize the detrimental effects of toxic cultures and the importance of people-centered leadership, many organizations still cling to outdated managerial theories from the Industrial Revolution.



    This book aims to illuminate the notion that work can be a positive force in people's lives. Carrick explores three core elements essential to building a workplace that fosters love and commitment: investing in leaders who prioritize the well-being of their employees, cultivating a conscious and brave culture, and empowering teams that genuinely care for each other. Moreover, she addresses the complexities of modern work environments, such as AI integration, remote and hybrid work models, and dynamic meta-economies.



    When Work is Good offers practical and actionable solutions that benefit individuals and businesses, Carrick emphasizes the significance of creating a positive work environment and advocates for redefining success at work to include survival and thriving.
