The problem you are being asked to solve

89% of employees in the UAE report experiencing stress — above the global average. Most organisations have responded with what is available: a wellbeing app, a talk at lunchtime, a step challenge.

These things are not wrong. They are simply not enough to change what happens in someone’s body at nine o’clock on a Monday morning.

Stress that is never discharged becomes something else. Shorter fuses. Slower decisions. Meetings that go around in circles. Good people quietly deciding to leave. By the time it reaches your attrition numbers, it has been happening for eighteen months.
