Enjoy listening to and learning from Maurice Wery who is
💬 sharing his story how he became the Global Wellbeing Manager of The Adecco Group
💬 giving us some very valuable insights into the details of his work in this position
💬 sharing some advice for future wellbeing leaders
My 3 main take aways from our conversation:
1. Okay, this will a bit personal now! Whoever knows me well and for a longer time, you know about my yoga 🧘♂️ journey and how much that was (?is?) part of my identity. However, my organisational wellbeing approach has always been beyond that (see link to an article from 2019 in the comments). I guess that's because of my identity as a management consultant 🐧
It was music 🎶 for my ears to hear this from Maurice. It is about the WAYS OF WORKING, about a structured approach. One time interventions, whatever (yoga) classes can be useful but there is a little chance they would disrupt and change the system.
2. In global organisations one global wellbeing approach is needed. However, we need to learn from parts of the company who are advanced in certain wellbeing areas and elevate their successful approach to a global level.
3. Make sure you really understand what's going on in your organisation. Go and talk to people on the ground, in the regions. Don't only rely on data from surveys. This is how you create a successful wellbeing journey!
