Work wellbeing should be treated as a core organizational strategy for helping people thrive, not just as superficial perks or mental health sessions.
A large-scale study with the University of Oxford measures wellbeing through four key outcomes: happiness, stress, job satisfaction, and purpose.
Wellbeing is influenced by 11 drivers across growth, social, and foundational needs, including concepts like appreciation, belonging, inclusion, and trust.
Research shows that belonging, inclusion, and feeling energized are the most influential drivers of wellbeing, ranking even higher than compensation.
Investing in employee wellbeing directly improves business metrics by increasing productivity, attracting more qualified applicants, and boosting employee retention.
Companies that prioritize and invest in work wellbeing consistently outperform the stock market, providing a clear financial incentive for leadership.
A key first step to improving wellbeing is to actively listen to underrepresented groups and challenge the single "ideal worker" norm to create a more flexible and inclusive environment for all.
