Investing in workplace wellness reduces business costs associated with absence and workers' compensation, but there are clear benefits in terms of engagement and productivity as well, says Aon Hewitt principal Danni Hocking.



In this webcast, she outlines:

• the positive impact of workplace wellness programs;
• the business impact of unhealthy employees;
• how to integrate wellness programs based on your organisation's risk profile;
• HR's role in workplace wellness;
• a case study of a successful workplace wellness initiative; and
• the importance of articulating the return on investment in workplace wellness.

Too often, what should be a simple conversation about performance or behaviour blows up into a confrontation, says leadership coach and life strategist Steve Fearns.



In this webcast, he sets out a framework for managers to:

• get clear on an issue;
• create self-awareness in employees;
• provide non-threatening feedback;
• approach counselling and discipline;
• create responsibility and accountability in teams and individuals;
• establish a team charter and expectations to "start again" and set ground rules; and
• use internal policies and procedures to achieve better results.

It is neither possible nor practical for employers to understand the drivers of each individual worker - engagement must be employee-led in order to be sustainable, says Employerbility founder Kate Boorer.



This webcast, recorded in May 2013, explores:

• the link between engagement and productivity;
• the nine-step engagement ladder, and how to climb it;
• challenges employers face in improving employee engagement;
• what employee engagement leadership looks like; and
• the three steps to an employee-led engagement culture.
