Secure Base
Whether you have a relationship or inner foundation that feels safe enough to explore from. A secure base lets you take risks knowing you have somewhere to return to.
Jan-Emmanuel De Neve and the Well-Being Research Realization
Secure Base was disrupted when Jan-Emmanuel De Neve discovered that his foundational belief about management was wrong. Growing up with a father who genuinely cared for employees created a secure base that most managers would share this approach. When Harvard Business Review research showed only 19% of managers actually prioritized employee well-being despite 87% claiming to care, Jan-Emmanuel De Neve's secure base of assumptions about leadership was shattered, forcing him to build a new foundation based on evidence rather than family experience.
