WFH has become the new norm
WFH DAILY STRESSORS
Psychological
infrastructure is missing
People not able to work from home
effectively (yet)
Increase of loneliness and mental
health issues when working
remotely
Digital experiences lack the
richness of face-to-face
interactions
People behave differently
on screens

‘Psychological vaccine’ confers psychological
resistance against online misinformation
www.getbadnews.com
• People are taught 6 fake news
strategies by becoming a fake
news specialist.
Source: Jon Roozenbeek & Sander van der Linden (2019)
• Study showed improved
cognitive resistance against
fake news
Final thoughts on creating the next generation
tech to enhance mental resilience.
1. The next generation of apps should be based on positive technology
principles. Design for well-being first, investor metrics second.
2. Utilize machine learning algorithms early on in your development to
create personalized employee experiences that tap into human
potential.
3. Technology is always a means to an end, so your true intentions will
decide how it will impact people.
