Wellbeing

Wellbeing has been pushed up the agenda during COVID-19, and organisations are providing a range of initiatives to support Wellbeing in their businesses.

Enhanced EAP (Employer Assistance Programmes), training MHFA (Mental Health First Aiders) and Mental Health Training for Leaders, signposting to resources and support, a raft of Leadership development offerings focusing on resilience, change, leading in uncertainty (VUCA Leadership). All of which is great progress.

Research conducted by Deloitte in January 2020 measured the financial return achieved by employers who made investments in employee wellbeing programs. The findings are quite astonishing;

• Employers obtain an average return of £5 for every £1 invested in employee wellbeing programs
• The best returns come from interventions that are focused on prevention of stress-related illness or that are designed to build employee resilience
• Programs specifically dedicated to developing resilience were able to demonstrate a return on investment of up to £11 for every £1 spent

I’m not a management consultant. I like to work with you as part of your team. I roll my sleeves up and work with you to solve the problem and help you to deliver the solution.

• I listen and interrogate to really understand your business challenges.
• I build you and your team’s confidence and skills as we go.
• I ‘coach by stealth’. Before you know it, you’ll be flying on your own!
