Corporate Wellness
This weekend OEG Fitness had a kickball event for one of our corporations that we do wellness for. There was a great turnout! There was catering, games, DJ and other entertainment. Of course there was kickball.
There were captains chosen and they picked their team. They chose a team name and color of their t-shirts. There was a buzz in the office for a couple weeks leading up to the event. Moral was up tremendously along with pride. This leads to the benefits of corporate wellness. Many employees from different departments were now communicating and planning when normally they would not talk at all. There was cross communication between all level employees, including the VP. Sometimes an employee can go months or years and have no contact with higher level management. Corporate wellness breaks those boundaries. Team bonding and building becomes a natural interaction as opposed to a forced one. Employees become innovative and come up with ideas that normally they would feel would not be heard or appreciated. This creates growth, pride, ownership, retention and exposure. A healthy and happy employee will be more efficient not just with clear and useful information, but will have energy all day. A healthy work employee does not miss work and is looking forward to contributing. A company that offers corporate wellness has employees that are looking forward to go to work because they feel they are cared for. They look forward to what is next.
What is next? Well in our corporate wellness program we offer many services. Nutrition talks, in office massage therapist, corporate personal trainers that can service groups or individuals with a variety of modalities that energize the employee. We plan events, such as kickball. We become involved with preparation into existing corporate fitness events such as 5k runs. Having events that simply go to a hotel hall or a restaurant etc simply does not hit these points the same way. They do not have lasting effects like wellness. Wellness is intoxicating. Those that rebel, which there is always those, naturally start becoming curious and start engaging by maybe doing something as simple as bringing a salad for lunch and not the usual sandwich. Services are also personalized. Goals of weight loss, education on nutritional choices, tone up, prepare for an event, heal an existing limitation, mental support. Much is covered by the corporate wellness umbrella.
