About Executive Loneliness: How to avoid the workplace isolation

In his book, “Executive Loneliness: How to avoid the workplace isolation,” Nick raises awareness, and aims to eliminate the stigma around the phenomenon of executive loneliness. Based on his own recovery experience, consultations with mental health experts, conversations with other executives who managed to recover from executive loneliness, and relevant research findings and the literature, as Nick sees it, there are five steps for either recovering from, or totally avoiding, executive loneliness.

This book itself details each of these five steps: Taking Stock, Asking for Help, Getting Healthy, Nurturing Healthy Relationships, Finding Your Purpose.

I have identified that feelings of isolation and depression—personal struggles that I, myself, have had to grapple with and conquer—are much more widespread than we think.”
