Designing work for well-being

Designing work for well-being

Organizations are continuing to realize the link between worker well-being and organizational performance—an overwhelming majority of respondents from the Deloitte 2020 Global Human Capital Trends survey marked well-being as a major priority for their company’s success. But what is well-being in the workplace? We explore this topic with Judy Fimiani, chief human resources officer at Learning Care Group. Hear how her organization made several key changes to build resilience among its teachers by changing everything from classroom design and curriculum to technologies and strategies. Plus, hear from Deloitte leaders on how to overcome common roadblocks associated with creating a strong well-being program.

Don’t forget to connect back to the worker’s needs and to not assume you know what those are. Assess more frequently, and don’t assume everyone is the same and has the same needs, and treat everyone the same.
