WHAT IS
QUIET THRIVING?
Quiet thriving is all about taking control of your
work experience, even if external factors seem
beyond your in昀氀uence.
It’s not about waiting for better managers, pay
rises, or perfect work conditions. Instead, it’s about
focusing on what you can control—whether that’s
昀椀nding joy in small wins, nurturing relationships
with colleagues, or setting achievable personal
goals.
This movement aligns with the principles of
positive psychology, particularly those championed
by Dr. Martin Seligman. The PERMA model
(Positive Emotions, Engagement, Relationships,
Meaning, Accomplishments) is particularly
relevant.
By fostering these elements, employees can
create ful昀椀lling work lives, even in less-than-ideal
environments.
