“Lying flat is my wise movement… Only by lying down can humans become the measure of all things.”
These words from a Chinese online forum, translated in English, are purported to be the originator of the “tang ping”, or “lying flat” trend in China where predominantly young Chinese workers are advocating for a lifestyle change by not overworking and rejecting the rat race.
With reference to your current or former workplace [If you are a full-time student and currently not working, you may choose an organization you are familiar with, e.g., as a volunteer], examine leadership’s role in employees overworking and engaging in the rat race. Avoid identifying persons by name in your post – please be sensitive and professional.
The word limit for DB is 300, please write concisely and clearly.

• You will need to cite all sources and provide complete references in APA style.
• When planning your presentation, do remember that analytical arguments and critical evaluations will gain more marks than a descriptive answer.
The References lists the full reference of all sources cited or referred to in your assignment. In-text citations also need to be presented accurately in APA format.
