It takes a lot to step up and lead when you don’t have “formal authority.” It is risky, takes a lot of energy and takes time away from your to-do list. Is it worth it? You bet, and here is why:
- Leading boosts meaning (Several studies show taking a more “Meaningful Orientation” at work is the #1 way to increase your energy at work)
- Leading boosts collaboration (Several studies show taking a “Collaborative Orientation” at work is the #2 way to increase your energy at work)
- Leading boosts learning (Several studies show taking a “Learners Orientation” at work is the #3 way to increase your energy at work)
Leading with or without a title is not only a win for your organization, but it is also a big win for you, your employees and your career. This program will outline the top 3, evidence-based ways you can lead more, accomplish more and enjoy work more no matter what your title says.
The great paradox is this: hard-working adults who strive to achieve more often end up defaulting to a daily routine that undermines their ability to succeed. But the secret to escaping the paradox is surprisingly simple: Change Your Day, Not Your Life.
This program teaches leaders how to energize their people and themselves when stress hits. Your leaders will learn three evidence-based ideas and a formula they can use to better manage times of high workload and organizational or industry change. They’ll also discover how to communicate that change in a way that improves focus and proactive behavior.

Regardless of what the future holds for healthcare, worksite wellness programs are and will continue to be critical to sustaining healthcare benefits, not to mention profitable companies. The big question is not, “Should I implement a worksite wellness program,” but rather:
- What does it take to effectively and persuasively pitch wellness to your stake holders?
- After you get the yes, how do you set up your program so that you maximize participation and ROI?
- Then, after the honeymoon period is over, what must you do to ensure your program continues to grow versus experiencing a steady decline in participation and the slow, painful death experienced by most worksite wellness programs?
In this “dig in and get your hands dirty” workshop, wellness consultant Andy Core, M.S. will give you doable, tactical answers to those questions, plus insights into his experience with companies like Gillette, Wal-Mart, Unilever, Clorox, Coldwell Banker, the U.S. Army and many others.
