What is a Chief Wellness Officer? Exploring the Role of Wellbeing in the Corporate Environment with Erin Coupe of Authentically EC The Chief's Table, An Ice Miller Podcast

    • Entrepreneurship

In recent years, the topic of wellness has become increasingly important, both to individuals and corporate entities alike. Many business leaders have begun to incorporate wellness curriculums of some form or other into their everyday operations, and some have even instituted a new executive role: the Chief Wellness Officer.
 
In this episode of The Chief’s Table, Kim Stapleton talks with Erin Coupe, founder of Authentically EC, about what exactly the role of a Chief Wellness Officer entails. They explore some key wellness concepts that Erin uses to help business executives optimize their own wellbeing so they can become more resilient, empathetic and effective leaders.
 
Erin explains that the concept of wellness goes far beyond what is offered in an employee benefits package. It’s less about tangible perks or the physical office space. Instead, it is about how employees feel in the presence of their leaders.
 
Erin says that once she provides business leaders with the tools they need to effectively manage their own mental and physical wellbeing, they then have the capacity to treat both themselves and their employees in a healthier way.
