workplace wellness
1-1 wellness for staff
(Remote or in person)
Organisations that don’t promote health and wellness are four times more likely to lose talent in the next 12 months.
Supporting staff wellness is one of the best ways to improve performance in a sustainable way (and yes, I’m biased). If you’re looking at the bottom line returns and realising that something isn’t working, this could be the solution.
In today’s world, managing stress and genuinely cultivating a positive mindset is a challenge for everyone. And simple self-care practices often aren’t enough for the mayhem of the 21st C. You might notice things amongst the staff like:
-
They seem down, and it’s not something that an energy drink or more coffee will fix.
-
They're highly stressed despite trying their best to stay calm and focused.
-
There is a significant loss in productivity that is more than time management can address
-
There is tension and conflict when people work together that is more than differing perspectives.
-
They make obvious errors or get frazzled doing a tasks they are more than qualified to do
-
They overreact when things don’t go as planned, such as snapping at people when they’re overwhelmed
-
They take more sick days and there’s an increase in absenteeism
You want their performance to improve, for their wellbeing to be present and for there to be more cohesion in the workplace. And, you want these changes to be sustainable and lasting.
You want to help staff to not just relax, but to be healthy, to light up, to be engaged and see new possibilities when working on tough problems in challenging situations.
Wellness support increases morale and productivity, improves focus and energy, eases friction between staff members, cultivates sustainable high performance and decreasing turnover rates.
The deeper problems we face
What I have found is that there are much deeper causes to the problems we face. For example, when we receive criticism that really gets to us, it's likely because it struck a deeper nerve.
There is also a ripple effect, because that nerve that was struck can then lead us to snap at someone else over a small mistake they made.
We all have our buttons and stresses, and whether or not we are aware of them, they have a severely negative impact on our work.
It's difficult to address this if you don’t have the right tools. For example, have you ever had a stressful problem and to relax you tried to meditate…but found that not doing something was more stressful? Or you spent time with friends to relax, and although you temporarily felt better, the moment you thought of the problems in your life again, that stress came right back up and nothing had changed to solve the issue?
When these deeper causes are not addressed, not only is it exhausting to our system (meaning staff have less energy, focus, and are more likely to take days off), but the science also shows it makes us less intelligent. The way our brain functions is significantly impeded (as an example of this, just think about how incoherent a highly stressed person can be.)
This means that when there are these deeper problems, we’re more likely to make poor decisions, think short term and be reactive rather than composed and resourceful. None of these things are conducive to a thriving business.
If these deeper problems remain un-addressed, we are constantly fighting the current.
The benefits
When we work with the deeper root causes, problems often organically fade away. The need for specific strategies for each individual issue tends to become unnecessary.
For example, if someone has deep self doubt, they may hold back from sharing great ideas, bring only a fraction of their energy to meetings and constantly seek help for every little problem.
Rather than finding a different strategy for each problem at a surface level (which gets very cumbersome), dealing with the root cause of self doubt elegantly takes care of them all.
One significant benefit of this work is that when specific sources of stress are found and released, they never come back. When new shifts in their mindset are created, they last.
As we work through the deeper root causes, people experience more wellness, they become more resourceful and are better able to focus.
Moving up in scale, teams can function and communicate better as people work with more ease. Ultimately, this can positively affect the culture of the workplace, improve the company's bottom line, and even have a beneficial ripple effect beyond the company itself.
