The failure of Wellness

Despite spending considerable sums of money on wellness, there is no effect on mental wellbeing.

At the same time, burnout, stress and depression are increasing.

Poor mental health poses the greatest risk to our overall wellbeing, surpassing physical health.

The absence of positive outcomes and the surge in ill-being have led us to create new solutions to address wellbeing in the workplace.

The result is our new framework to strengthen wellbeing.

We have the solution to your challenges

Our Work Wellbeing Framework ™ is developed to tackle leadership and organisational challenges arising from the growing mental health crisis.

The framework offers a detailed but straightforward plan to enhance work wellbeing through five essential stages.

There are multiple interventions and initiatives to consider at each stage to address specific parts of the organisation, ranging from leadership to policies and managers to teams.

The goal of the Work Wellbeing Framework ™ is to provide companies with clarity and tools to improve the work lives of their employees.

The Work Wellbeing Framework™ offers solutions which each company can implement through their own resources or with our support for organisational and behaviour change.

The assessment of your organisation’s future framework will result in goals which align with your company’s values and strategies and allow for flexible integration based on organisational readiness.

This allows for high flexibility and control, as well as clarity over roles, responsibilities, and purpose.

From ill-being to wellbeing

The purpose of the Work Wellbeing Framework™ is to equip companies with clarity of their options at different stages of their organisational wellbeing.

 

Our approach is to build on each company’s organisational context.

 

What is causing wellbeing friction, or where does wellbeing flourish?

The framework sets out 5 stages to address different levels of employee wellbeing focus.

 

We work with our clients to assess where they are in the process and where to concentrate solutions for the maximum impact.

 

The result if flexibility and control over when to focus on the next stage.

There is a noticeable imbalance in the emphasis on physical health versus mental health in work policies, strategies and health & safety measures.

Our research and experience show that organisations struggle with identifying a systematic approach to overall wellbeing at work and are unsure about handling mental health.

Wellbeing is a multi-faceted concept that has been extensively studied in various scientific fields.

We have been tapping into all this research for  years, and have identified what works and what doesn’t.

What leads to friction in wellbeing, or where does wellbeing prosper? The possibilities exist for organisational learning and future transformations.

Often small changes to how we work, the way we work together and how we manage others, can have a big impact on wellbeing.
