Book excerpt: What if the next global crisis is a mental health pandemic? It is here now. One-third of Americans have shown signs of clinical anxiety or depression, and the current state of suffering globally has risen significantly. The mental health pandemic manifests everywhere, not least in your workplace. As organizations around the world face health and social crises, as well as economic uncertainty, acknowledging and improving wellbeing in your workplace is more critical than ever. Increasingly, leaders and managers must support mental health and cultivate resilience in employees — not just increase engagement and performance. Based on more than 100 million Gallup global interviews, Wellbeing at Work shows you how to do just that. Coauthored by Gallup’s CEO and its Chief Workplace Scientist, Wellbeing at Work explores the five key elements of wellbeing — career, social, financial, physical and community — and how organizations can help employees and teams thrive in those elements. The book also gives leaders ideas and action items to help employees use their innate talents and strengths to thrive in each of the wellbeing elements. And Wellbeing at Work introduces a metric to report a person’s best possible life: Gallup Net Thriving, which will become the “other stock price” for organizations. In a world where work and life are more blended than ever, maximizing employee wellbeing takes on greater urgency. Wellbeing at Work shows leaders how to create a thriving and resilient culture. If you and your leaders don’t change the world, who will? Wellbeing at Work includes a unique code to take the CliftonStrengths assessment, which reveals your top five strengths.

Book excerpt: Are you interested in wellness at work, employee well-being, and how to keep employees productive, healthy, and happy? We are, too. The science of helping organizations grow their people resources in a way that helps the people grow while also aligning them with the organization so that as the people grow, the organization also grows is known as Organizational Development. Typically, this area is considered the arena of Industrial and Organizational Psychologists, but as we work to adapt our organizations to new generations of employees with different goals and priorities, this arena has grown in relevance to the everyday work that frontline people from CEOs, to HR managers, to "Shared Services" or "People" managers are doing. One Fortune 500 Company found that one employee program provided a staggering 1000% ROI. While extreme, this example demonstrates that strategic wellbeing programs that look at the overall needs of employees rather than focusing solely on health can deliver great returns. Is your organization capitalizing on this?Hi! We are Dr. Alice Vo Edwards and Dr. Arezou Harraf. You can read more about us and our work at the end of this book, but suffice to say, we have over 30 years of organizational development and HR management experience under our belts, and we want to help you help your organization thrive. This is not a fluff book that's going to talk about lots of touchy-feely stuff, get you excited, then leave you floundering - wondering how the hell to implement this cool stuff in your organization. This is not a cotton-candy book. This book is pure protein. We're going to help you exercise some mental muscle gaining an understanding of the overall process, and provide our proposed method for how you can create a plan that is based on science, focused on iterative evaluation, and being able to demonstrate return on investment for the time and money you put into developing it. If you already have workplace wellbeing plans in place, using our methods of planning and evaluating your current programs will also help you gain measurable, meaningful insights into your programs.This book is designed as an action-oriented instructional guide and workbook that can guide you, as the individual tasked with coming up with a plan for improvement for your organization. In it, yes, you will learn what other organizations have been doing, how it is scientifically valid and not just a waste of your company's money or a PR stunt, but you will also be walked through the process of identifying a business plan for what programs would be the best for you to try in your company, how to plan for success, how to evaluate how successful your program was, and how to report on the results so you look good, your program looks great, and you can add more and make it even better, next year.By the end of this book, you will: *Develop a better understanding of wellbeing*Understand organizational components that impact employees overall wellbeing*Understand different interventions that are useful in this realm*Learn how to measure and monitor employee wellbeing*Understand the strategic link between employee wellbeing and productivity*Learn to use the Well@WorkPlan(TM) Method

Download or read book Next-Generation Wellness at Work written by Stephenie Overman and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2009-09-15 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fact: Wellness programs benefit the bottom line. Motorola, for example, found that each dollar invested in wellness benefits returned $3.93 in health and disability cost savings. Next-Generation Wellness at Work tells how to get in on the action. A nuts-and-bolts, how-to guide for managers, it delivers the latest thinking on how to take full advantage of the benefits that wellness programs can offer both employees and companies. And the effort couldn't be more important. With the soaring cost of medical care and the increase in obesity and lifestyle-related illnesses, there is growing recognition that companies must build a culture of health and enable employees to become better guardians of their own well being. This book illustrates, in detail, exactly how to accomplish those goals. Good health saves in ways that go beyond smaller insurance premiums. It also has a direct relationship with employee productivity, making wellness a matter of high-level strategy. However, many workplace wellness programs are not as effective as they could be. They are not comprehensive, not long-term, and not marketed to the people who could benefit most. Wellness expert Stephenie Overman helps managers take practical steps to overcome these deficiencies and build successful workplace wellness programs that result in tangible, bottom-line benefits for organizations. And the book starts from the ground up, first by explaining how to take a company's temperature, get management buy-in, and design a program that fits a company's unique needs and situation. Building a program is one thing, but will they come? That's where Overman's expertise is essential: She shows how to motivate workers to take advantage of the program and reap its many benefits. And she explains how to partner with local health providers and integrate methods to promote psychological well being, two key ingredients for success. Not many corporate programs benefit both employees and the company equally, but a well-planned wellness initiative will boost the health and productivity of employees, leading to a happier—and more competitive—workplace.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This anthology examines how to cultivate human flourishing in the present-day boundary-less work environment. Anchored in the moral and spiritual dimension of well-being, it draws upon several allied fields such as workplace wellness in business and psychology. It utilizes findings from positive psychology, social psychology, organizational neuroscience, quantum physics, organizational behavior, and the world’s contemplative wisdom traditions to support the case for workplace flourishing. Chapters cover such themes as analyzing the cause of workplace disengagement and pathways to employee engagement; self-transformation as a prelude to transform organizations; and mindfulness as framework to enhance human flourishing. Research shows that organizations with higher levels of employee engagement routinely out-perform those with lower employee engagement. This book provides valuable insights into why employee well-being is such a powerful driver of employee performance and engagement and advances scholarship on how organizations can enhance workplace well-being and fulfillment.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The health and well-being of people of working age are of fundamental importance to the future of work and organizational productivity globally. Growing evidence suggests that employee well-being at work can help improve physical and mental health, reduce health inequalities and offer improved opportunities for engagement, wellness at work, and productivity. The debate about the impact of working life on employee well-being has been intensified. Whilst the issue of employee well-being at work has reached a new level of importance in the minds of policy makers, managers, and employers there is still little evidence that attention has been paid to the worker’s voice in their evaluation of HRM practices, line management leadership, the quality of working life and well-being at work in organizations. Research within these areas remain relatively untapped. Furthermore, understanding employees expectations of the psycho-social factors affecting the employment relationship and employee well-being at work are all lacking in the evidence base. This book seeks to contribute to the debate in these areas.

This book was released on 2018-09-06 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This proactive guide brings the relationship between work life and mental well-being into sharp focus, surveying common challenges and outlining real-life solutions. The authors’ approach posits managers as the chief mental health officers of their teams, offering both a science-based framework for taking stock of their own impact on the workplace and strategies for improvement. Areas for promoting mental wellness include reducing stress and stigma, building a safe climate for talking about mental health issues, recognizing at-risk employees, and embracing diversity and neurodiversity. Emphasizing key questions to which managers should be attuned, the book speaks to its readers—whether in corporate, nonprofit, start-up, or non-business organizations—as a friendly and trusted mentor. Featured in the coverage: · Mind the mind: how am I doing, and how can I do better? · Dare to care: how are my people doing, and how might I help? · Building blocks for mental health: how do I manage my team? · Stress about stressors: what is constantly changing in the environment? · Changing my organization and beyond: how can I have a greater impact? Compassionate Management of Mental Health in the Modern Workplace holds timely relevance for managers, human resources staff, chief medical officers, development heads in professional service firms, union or employee organization leaders, legal and financial professionals, and others in leadership and coaching positions. “Workplace mental health: Wow! A subject that frightens most managers. If they read this book, they will strengthen their own skills and transform their workplace and our society.” Donna E. Shalala, Trustee Professor of Political Science and Health Policy, University of Miami; former U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services “Mental health is an underappreciated, and oft-misunderstood challenge that is growing in the modern workplace. This book provides leaders with practical advice to address mental health challenges in their organization and improve productivity and wellbeing. This is a topic that can no longer be ignored by leaders in any field, and a book that will fundamentally change the way we think about and help improve mental health in the workplace.” Dominic Barton, Managing Director, McKinsey & Company

This book was released on 2021-06-29 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Power your business culture with strong workplace relationships—and watch productivity and profitability soar For years, companies have been implementing programs that promote social responsibility and improve employee health, both of which benefit the financial bottom line. Now it’s time to focus on positive social interactions and relationships in the workplace. Why? Research shows that authentic, trust-based relationships increase job satisfaction, engagement, productivity, and retention—and even decreased healthcare costs. In Work Better Together, two experts from Deloitte explain how working remotely, over-relying on digital communication, and always being “on” is fast-increasing feelings of isolation and burnout—and how a work culture driven by quality relationships can reverse these trends. The authors show how to cultivate positive relationships by: Focusing on self-care, such as physical health, quality sleep, and taking time off Tapping into human skills, such as empathy, authenticity, and communication Using technology with intentionality to strengthen relationships, while breaking the negative habits technology fosters Managing workplace relationships, whether you’re in the office every day or telecommuting—or something in between Developing a culture of strong relationships that drive quality collaboration throughout the organization Work Better Together walks you through the process of implementing change and fueling a much-needed corporate movement towards humanity in the workplace. Based on the authors’ 40+ combined years of experience, it helps you meet today’s employees’ most urgent needs, while benefitting your organization in real and measurable ways.

Creating Healthy Organizations answers this question, showing how to forge stronger links between employee well-being and the future success of any organization. The book makes a compelling case for resilient and humanly sustainable businesses by focusing on improving employees’ well-being. Employee stress, burnout, work-life conflict, and disengagement remain significant workplace problems. Yet, there are important signs of progress. The healthy organization concept has begun moving into the mainstream of corporate wellness. Scholarly research has advanced beyond making a business case for workplace health promotion to showing how successful interventions are based on a culture of health and closer ties with occupational health and safety. More companies are addressing mental health issues, striving to make workplaces psychologically healthy and safe. Expanded environmental sustainability frameworks provide an opening for the more sustainable use of human resources. As well, extensive tools are now available in many countries to guide actions aimed at developing healthy, safe, and thriving workplaces. These recent workplace trends and resources highlight the need for an updated, concise, integrated, and practical analysis of the challenges of creating a healthier organization, the hurdles that must be overcome along the way, and the key success factors that can guide the improvement process. Creating Healthy Organizations, Revised and Expanded Edition fills this gap in knowledge and practice, guiding those committed to making their organizations healthier.

This book was released on 2018-09-25 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: $5.7 Trillion is the projected amount the United States will spend on healthcare in 2026, according to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. Growing at nearly 6% every year, employers, employees, and taxpayers will pay for these costs. Employers are in a unique and somewhat desperate position to make a difference in the health economics landscape. They are central to employees' lives and they have the motivation to avoid the financial pain. Growing a Healthy Workforce provides organizational leaders with a la carte options as well as an overall plan to reduce their growing health-related costs. Derived from actual employee interviews, employers can learn how employees feel about wellness initiatives (or, more commonly, lack of initiatives). This text is based on an in-depth case study featuring a robust and comprehensive scorecards that managers can use themselves. With the help of this book, managers can obtain the "wellness temperature" of their organization. They can then take specific and measurable steps to improve the health of their employees and the financial health of their organization. As a long-time professor of Organizational Leadership and a corporate trainer, the author is sensitive to the often authoritarian ways that health-related dictates are passed down from upper management. The suggestions in this book can allow employees to choose their level of engagement in wellness initiatives At the same time, the author suggests ways that leaders can nudge employees to make healthy choices as their default action. The Eight Dimensions of Organizational Wellness are: - Organizational Supports and Leadership - Tobacco Control - Healthy Nutrition - Chronic Disease Prevention / Management - Response to Heart Attack and Stroke - Physical Activity - Occupational Health and Safety - Mental Health
