About The Book

WHAT WOULD IT TAKE TO MAKE WORK BETTER?

With shifting worker expectations and market upheaval, leaders and organizations everywhere are trying to catch their breath. As a result, a division in workplace culture has emerged with some companies clinging to obsolete corporate practices and others feeling lost and overwhelmed.

As the CEO of WorldatWork and a self-proclaimed “work nerd,” author Scott Cawood introduces The New Work Exchange, a philosophy which redefines a successful workplace. From unpacking the history of work, the challenges of keeping pace with consumer demands, and the importance of putting people first, The New Work Exchange is a journey to reassess value alignment between workers and workplaces.

With real-life examples from some of the best (and worst) workplaces to practical questions and tips, The New Work Exchange is an exploration of what work really works.

About The Author

SCOTT CAWOOD, EdD, CCP, GRP, CSCP, CBP, has spent his entire career working to answer the question, how can we make work — and workplaces — better? A self-described “work nerd,” Cawood’s passion for the workplace and how it functions (or not) inspired him to earn degrees in organizational communication, labor and industrial relations, education, and a doctorate degree in organization and work-based learning. Unsurprisingly, he’s forged these disciplines into a singular passion for organizations dedicated to great work. Since 2015, he’s been CEO of the nonprofit member-based association WorldatWork, dedicated to figuring out how to make work and the employee experience better for top organizations across the world.

A renowned speaker and presenter, this is his second book.
