Abstract: Abstract In the context of escalating workplace stress, digital hyperconnectivity, and emerging technological disruptions, this chapter reimagines the concept of workplace well-being by moving beyond traditional cognitive and managerialist framings. Drawing from both classical models—subjective, eudaimonic, and affective well-being—and emerging perspectives, the chapter emphasizes the embodied, relational, and technological dimensions of well-being. It explores three critical frontiers: the tension between quantified and quantum paradigms of well-being; digital disconnection as a restorative practice amid hyperconnectivity; and the neurosomatic imperative, which re-centers the body as a site of intelligence, healing, and relational atonement. Through this multidimensional lens, the chapter critiques instrumental approaches to well-being and proposes an integrated framework that includes artificial and neurosomatic intelligences. It concludes with a research agenda for the hospitality industry, urging scholars and practitioners to explore how these new trajectories can reshape guest experiences and employee training.
