Back to the Future: What worked this year? How do we make next year better?

With the holidays on the horizon, a time of reflection is fast upon us. What worked well? How do we get better? Much of the content we created this month and have planned for next month focuses on answering these critical questions. Dr. Carr is back with another edition of Dr. Carr’s Corner that will help leaders be more aware of their team member’s emotional wellbeing states. As usual, he also had some tips and guidance to help you be a better leader. We have a couple of Livestream Events coming up that will be helpful for organizations to learn and share ideas of how we can improve our wellbeing strategies moving forward. Greg Braylock Jr, Vice President and Chief Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Officer at ProMedica was this month’s PurposeCast guest, and he shared some wonderful insights to help us all ensure we’re creating an inclusive culture where belonging and openness are centered. 

Let’s get ready for 2022 starting today, with our October Newsletter.

Wellbeing 3.0 Webinar: Designing Wellbeing That People Love (and CFOs, Too!)

In 2022, Baystate Health boldly re-designed its award-winning employee wellness program to better meet the moment. The Baystate team centered the new design on root causes of wellbeing: compassion, connection, purpose, social determinants, and emotional wellbeing. Now the team is exceeding engagement goals through creative use of re-imagined social challenges paired with an innovative social-good incentive model.

Watch this webinar and learn practical and proven new ways to:
– Design to better meet employee needs today, and better leverage your benefits (without busting your budget!)
– Align wellbeing benefits and culture initiatives to fortify employee experience
– Reallocate incentive spend to get more change that sticks (rather than just paying for clicks)
– Use personal purpose to help boost employee engagement & retention across the salary spectrum.
