The New Frontier of Wellness
In our recent past, corporate wellness programs were well intentioned but poorly executed, with low participation rates and indifferent results. Today, however, wellness has made a comeback and is now driven by motivated and informed employees, whose expectations for psychologically healthier workplaces are the norm, not the exception. In the war to attract and retain talent, savvy employers are listening carefully, and responding with innovative programs.

For wellness programs to succeed and create a lasting positive impact, they must be part of a company’s culture claims Kim Macey, COO of Benefits by Design (BBD), as she shares her corporate culture in “Walking the Talk of Wellness — It’s Cultural”.

Dr. Jack Muskat shares his view on the holistic approach required for wellness with a bit of humour. Apple has correctly surmised that health care, wellness and lifestyle are the new frontiers for this decade. Enjoy his article, “The New Wellness”.

Sharing stories of what works and what doesn’t is a profound and meaningful way to learn from others. In the article, “Best Practices for Work-Life Balance” you will read the stories of five companies and why they believe that more flexibility is a solution to disengaged, burned-out employees.

Today, managers should be interested in understanding how they can foster resilience in their employees and organizations so that they can succeed in the face of difficulties such as cost-cutting, downsizings and ever-intensifying competitive pressures. In his article, “Building Resilience in Organizations”, Dr. Jamie Gruman tackles the important question of how to build resilience into the fabric of your organization.

And there is much, much more. Enjoy this issue of Your Workplace magazine!
