How to Implement Wellbeing Strategies That Actually Work

How People Work

Wellbeing is more than just a buzzword or a one-size-fits-all program. It’s individual to each employee and a key determinant of a healthy work life in the workplace. And contrary to popular belief — wellbeing can be measured! 

Key ideas and highlights:

  • The youngest generation demands a purpose-driven career. How can we keep up?
  • There are 3 main work determinants of health: leadership, organizational design, and ways of working across the organization.
  • Wellbeing now must be a part of the benefits equity conversation.
  • Contrary to popular belief, wellbeing is measurable.

Word of the day:

  • We haven’t forgotten about the word of the day! We’ll pick this back up when Jordan returns next week.
