Abstract

Chrystie Watson explored the application of the principles of Stoic philosophy in the workplace. She found professionals experienced greater acceptance of what was within their control, were better able to regulate their responses to changing circumstances and make clearer decisions while building an awareness of the contributions they make to the common good through their practice of Stoicism. These findings may inform the design of professional development initiatives and programs.
