Navigating Evolving Work and Wellbeing Dynamics

In the ever-changing landscape of work and its relationship with wellbeing, previously successful approaches may no longer suffice. Observing potential declines in engagement with wellbeing activities or recognizing that existing initiatives fall short in addressing fundamental issues affecting employee wellbeing can signal the need for strategic reassessment. Changes in work practices may also present new challenges that demand innovative solutions.

According to the latest CIPD health & wellbeing report, over 51% of organizations are now implementing formal wellbeing strategies, reporting various benefits such as improved morale, engagement, reduced sickness absence, enhanced employer brand, increased productivity, and better staff retention.

In response to these evolving dynamics, SuperWellness recommends adopting a forward-looking perspective by crafting a comprehensive employee wellbeing strategy spanning a three-year horizon. Embracing a cycle of continuous improvement, typically revisited annually, ensures adaptability to emerging challenges. SuperWellness's consultancy packages are tailored to support organizations at any stage, offering:

Wellbeing Strategy Best Practices: Drawing on extensive know-how and experience to guide the development and refinement of effective wellbeing strategies.
Skilled Third-Party Facilitation: Providing expert facilitation to foster productive discussions and collaborative efforts among stakeholders.
Structured Approach: Offering a framework for objective definition and accountability, ensuring a sustained focus on delivering meaningful results throughout the lifespan of the wellbeing strategy.

Shaping Workplace Culture through Wellbeing Trainings

In response to the evolving dynamics of the modern workplace, SuperWellness offers a transformative wellbeing training course designed to empower leaders and positively influence workplace culture.

The past two years have presented unprecedented challenges for leaders, thrusting people management skills, wellbeing, and adaptability into the spotlight, particularly in the context of hybrid working. Recognizing the crucial role leaders play in shaping an organization's wellbeing culture, the latest CIPD wellbeing report underscores the significance of leaders' skills in the success or failure of wellbeing strategies. Despite this, formal wellbeing training and support for leaders in developing these essential skills remain limited.

SuperWellness provides a comprehensive Wellbeing Leadership Training course structured as a half-day workshop, catering to up to 15 participants. This program aims to equip leaders and managers with the understanding, knowledge, and skills necessary to support and promote their organization's wellbeing strategy. The training integrates knowledge sharing on recent wellbeing trends and best practices with engaging discussions, reflection sessions, and the opportunity for participants to formulate personal action plans.

The Wellbeing Leadership Training course is available in two versions, specifically tailored for different leadership levels. One version is designed for senior leadership members, while the other is crafted for line managers. This strategic approach ensures that the training meets the unique needs and responsibilities of leaders at various levels within the organization.

Fostering Staff Wellbeing for Resilience Building

SuperWellness offers a transformative solution to support staff mental and physical wellbeing, promoting lasting change and building resilience within your organization. In the aftermath of the pandemic, the CIPD highlights that nearly half of employees report a decline in both physical and mental health. Concurrently, a survey by Public Health England reveals that an unprecedented 8 in 10 adults are motivated to improve their health. This presents a significant opportunity to make a meaningful impact on staff health and wellbeing by supporting long-term lifestyle changes, fostering improved physical and mental health, and building resilience.

Recognizing the pivotal role of diet and lifestyle in prevention, SuperWellness offers lifestyle change programs with a proven track record of achieving measurable results. These programs encompass a broad spectrum of areas, from cultivating healthy habits, such as meeting the '5 a day or more' recommendation and reducing unhealthy snacking, to positively influencing employee happiness, engagement, and turnover.

SuperWellness's lifestyle change programs have undergone extensive testing to ensure effectiveness, whether delivered in-person or online. Specific adaptations have been incorporated to maximize engagement in each format, providing flexibility to meet the diverse needs of organizations. For organizations seeking to build mental and physical resilience while fostering lasting positive change in staff wellbeing, SuperWellness stands as a trusted partner with a track record of success. Discover how this approach can benefit your organization by exploring the comprehensive programs available.
