The Workplace Wellbeing Book - Done as a Podcast | Part 1 - Chapter 3

The Workplace Wellbeing Podcast

Chapter 3: Discovery and establishing a wellbeing strategy. Two themes emerged over the course of our podcast on strategy.

They were:

• Companies didn’t have a strategy. They had free fruit and yoga
• The need to do some investigation work during a discovery phase before you settle on a strategy.

Several of our guests discussed the steps needed to establish a strategy which always started with asking colleagues their point of view and finding out what the wellbeing issues were. Once you know what the issues were, coming up with strategies to improve them was relatively easy. This was called the discovery phase and often involved surveys and workshops.

This chapter includes clips from the following podcasts:

• Davina Ramkissoon, Health & Wellbeing Director at Zevo Health | Where should you start with a wellbeing strategy?
• Sue Jauncey, Founder, Appellon | The next-generation workforce, how to increase wellbeing whilst at the same time achieving a company’s goals
• Darren Laverty, Founding Partner, Foster Denovo | How we can make an impact on our colleagues and the pitfalls employers should be looking for
