You don't have to start with a fancy, high-tech wellness program. You can start small by making it fun, and getting people talking, laughing and moving together. A wellness program that involves some form of movement--running, yoga, pilates, walking- will benefit your company in huge ways. In addition to helping individuals improve attention, motivation, focus and a sense of well-being, they contribute to productivity, a sense of belonging and help people work together better as a team.
If you're having trouble convincing your boss that working on company time is not a waste of time and money, listen to this episode for facts that you can use to sell your employer on a program.
If you are looking for help training your group for a 5K, or would like to book a speaker or someone to conduct a lunch and learn on a wellness topic, email Coach Kim at CoachKim@thePowerofrun.com.
