Workplace

High Engagement and High Wellbeing

Compared to those with high engagement and low

wellbeing those who are high in both are 30% less likely to miss work due to poor health.

How can leaders keep wellbeing alive?

• Be aware of their own engagement and wellbeing

• Give employees a platform to recognize the actions they're taking to improve their wellbeing and engagement.

How can leaders create a culture of wellbeing?

1. Provide a strong, sustained commitment to well-being.

2. Communicate a clear and consistent definition of well-being. 3. Lead by example, set the agenda, and use the bully pulpit.

4. Make sure that employees understand that leadership authentically cares about their well-being.

5. Measure and monitor the effectiveness of well-being programs.

6. Maintain a workplace culture dedicated to holistic well-being across all five key elements.

Elements of Wellbeing

achieve goals.

• Social having strong relationships and love in your life.

• Financial managing an economic life to reduce stress and increase

security.

• Physical good health and enough energy to get things done on a daily

basis.
