How to Develop a Wellbeing Strategy

EVER HAD THAT FEELING OF PANIC, WHEN YOU'RE RUNNING LATE...YOU KNOW WHERE YOU NEED TO BE...BUT YOU'RE LOST...IF ONLY YOU HAD A MAP AND KNEW WHERE YOU WERE...

WELCOME TO THE WORLD OF EMPLOYEE WELLBEING 2023!

When it comes to developing a wellbeing strategy it really is all about the execution. However the idiosyncratic nature of wellbeing means that simply applying the statistics doesn't work. We just don't know who the '1 in 4' people are (with mental health issues) until it is too late. Do we focus on everyone, do we bury our heads in the sand? Perhaps an App will help or some mindfulness training? In your heads you might be thinking JUST BE SEEN TO DO SOMETHING! Well that was Wellbeing 2022.

When developing a wellbeing strategy, or any strategy for that matter, too often we jump to WHERE DO WE WANT TO BE?, Step 2 in the strategy development process below, without completing Step1, knowing where we actually are. And if we don't know where we are, WE ARE LOST!

1. Where are we now?

2. Where do we want to get to?

3. How can we get there?

4. Which way is best?

5. How do we ensure arrival?

So where are you on your Wellbeing Journey? Do you have a wellbeing strategy? Are you lost when it comes to wellbeing? Have you developed a personal or organisational plan for wellbeing improvement? Are you struggling to know where to start?

We developed the KAYA Wellbeing Insight Survey to help organisations answer the Where are we now question?. It's amazing how simple the next steps are when you no where you are. Our Baseline Survey is free to use so you can add insight to your strategy without incurring costs. You have nothing to lose and everything to gain. #wellbeing #mentalhealth #strategy #kaya #wellbeingstrategy
