Bottom Line Mentality: How Culture Shapes Productivity and Wellbeing
Overview
Many organisations say they care about people, but day to day, it can feel like only one thing really matters: the numbers. This “bottom line mentality” – where financial or performance targets consistently trump everything else – can drive short‑term results, but at a cost to creativity, learning, psychological safety and wellbeing.
In this research‑informed webinar, Business Psychologist Ellice Whyte will unpack what bottom line mentality actually is, how it shows up in everyday leadership behaviours, and why it can leave teams “thriving” on paper while feeling exhausted, anxious or silent in reality. We will explore the links between bottom‑line pressure, burnout, unethical or avoidant behaviour, and reduced innovation – and, importantly, what leaders and organisations can do differently.
Core Outcome
You’ll leave with practical ways to:
- Spot bottom line mentality in your own culture and leadership habits
- Rebalance performance and people, without losing sight of results
- Create conditions where psychological safety, learning and wellbeing support (rather than compete with) productivity
