BORN TO MOVE, TOLD TO SIT: OUR WELL-BEING IS IN THE BALANCE.

The Multiplier Effect of Well-Being

What the best team leaders do differently.

While wellness may not be part of the job description, every manager is uniquely positioned to make or break their team members’ well-being. Problem is, most manager view wellness as being outside of their scope, disconnected from the bottom line, and something to be addressed by HR. But, the extent to which employees are well largely comes down to leaders, especially managers. Senior leaders are needed to set the tone for well-being at work, and managers effectively serve as the conduits of well-being for their team members. Therefore, every team leader must consider: Am I acting as a multiplier, or am I acting as a gatekeeper? This session demonstrates the critical role that managers play in embedding wellness into the fabric of business as usual, and the specific steps that each can take to become a Multiplier of Well-Being.

• Why well-being is essential to enhanced engagement, productivity and organizational excellence.
