A Note from the author
The Organic Workplace exists at the intersection of how systems function and how people are affected by them.
Earning my MBA placed me in environments structured around power, productivity, and image. I learned quickly how language, education, and confidence shape who is taken seriously. I also noticed how many organizational goals are framed as individual responsibility, always in service of the bottom line. In those spaces, overwork is often normalized and employees are used to the point of burnout, then encouraged to see it as ambition or resilience rather than a warning sign.
Being in those environments made me more aware of how systems reward some people while quietly shutting others out. It also taught me how to communicate across differences and how to move within institutions without losing sight of the people impacted by them.
My MSW schooling has given me the other side of that picture. It has taught me how stress, burnout, and trauma show up in real lives not as personal failures, but as predictable responses to systems that ignore human limits.
I am looking forward to sharing what I have learned and the perspective I continue to develop. My hope is that this work helps the greater collective feel seen, heard, and above all, respected for the individual they are.
