Wellbeing? It’s a strategic fundamental. And it should be a long-term outcome of work” - Peter Cheese, Chief Executive of CIPD
You won't struggle for conversation topics, the next time you're stuck in an elevator with your CEO.
Recruitment. Absenteeism. Cost of living. National Insurance. Employment rights bills. And that's just the start.
As four industry heavyweights took the stage, we heard a rallying cry to People leaders: take this to the board, and don't back down. The panel were united in imploring teams to start at the top, encouraging more conversations about mental and financial health from executive level downwards.
The goal? Get your organisation off the back foot, and onto the front foot. Take your wellbeing strategy from 'coping' to 'empowering' - from mitigating the wellbeing effects of your colleagues coming to work, to making their wellbeing better because of coming to work.
