WORKSHOP
"Working
with Dr Frank Dick O.B.E. has already had a massive impact on me. I now
swim 4 times a week and drink 2 litres of water a day which I never,
ever did. Having suffered from dreadful headaches and migraines, I
haven't had a bad attack for nearly two months!!" (click here for showreel)
Building
on this notion, we have created a unique Wellbeing workshop which
provides a personal lifestyle system check and coaching advice in the
areas of:
Stress
Management
Fitness
Motivation
Nutrition
Led
by Dr Frank Dick OBE, the workshop is supported by other highly
experienced coaches who have worked extensively in the worlds of sport,
academia, nutrition and business.
Because the messages are absorbing and
personally relevant for your employees or clients alike, the Wellbeing
workshop lends itself to a number of different opportunities:
reward
and recognition -
reward your employees with life skills they can use in and outside of
work
corporate
hospitality - adopt
a fresh and innovative way of building relationships with your clients
internal communications -
demonstrate to your people your interest in their wellbeing and
strengthen employee loyalty along the way
away
day and team building -
watch the progress of the whole team as they address personal wellbeing
issues to up their performance
the statistics
The issue of health and wellbeing has become
a huge debate played out in the media, advertising, by politicians and
academics alike.
And for good reason. Just a few of the
statistics on the subject begin to paint the picture:
- "Stress costs UK employers around £370 million" -
HSE.
- "The true cost is far higher - around £5.2
billion" - Confederation of British Industry.
- "52% of employers noticed an increase in stress-related
absence" - CIPD, 2004
- "Cardiovascular mortality was 2 times higher after major
downsizing" - BMJ, 2004
- "Psychosocial stress factors are third biggest link to
heart disease, following smoking and fatty diets. Insufficient exercise
is the fourth factor" - The Lancet, 2004
- A study by Saatchi & Saatchi Advertising, 63% of
employees enrolled in its fitness programme cited improved
productivity and 75% said it boosted morale
wellbeing
at work
- What is new is a growing awareness by organisations of
their responsibility for employees' wellbeing - encompassing both
physical and mental fitness for work.
- We know that keeping employees healthy and well, allows a
company to perform better, especially when things get tough and the
pressure is on.
- If people don't feel 100%, they can't give 100%. It doesn't
matter whether they are stressed because they are physically unfit,
under pressure at work, or worried about a problem in the family.
- And if a company is actively involved in promoting
wellbeing - it gives employees a strong message that the company cares
for them as individuals. This in turn can inspire and motivate
employees and strengthen loyalty to the organisation.
