• Topic: Wellbeing is a Priority, But Are We Making Progress?
• Date: Thursday, November 2, 2023
• Time: 11:00 am – 1:00 pm
• Location: Haverford College, 370 Lancaster Ave, Haverford, PA 19041

Session Highlights:

Organizational objectives continue to change significantly, and swiftly. Despite wellbeing being a priority, issues related to stress and burnout continue to erode wellbeing, resiliency, trust, and employee engagement while concerns around attracting and retaining talent are at an all-time high.

In this session, we will explore:

• How physical, emotional, financial, and career wellbeing all connect and impact overall organizational wellbeing.
• The power of culture, trust, recognition, and leader influence and their impact on talent, DEI, and employee wellbeing.
• The growing incidence of loneliness and how social connectedness is impacting performance and health.
• How employers are responding and discuss HR for HR – how we can support each other as a community.

Timeline:

• 30-minute Gallagher Presentation
• 60-minute panel discussion
• 30-minute wrap-up
