I find it's actually very common for business owners and leaders to care about their teams' mental health and well-being, but they think it comes at a cost to their business--like they have to make the terrible choice between caring for people or their company. The reality is that investing in the well-being of teams is an asset that will strengthen and support the business! I can see why leaders see well-being as a cost without ROI, though. Popular workplace well-being initiatives include things like wellness apps, workplace yoga, wellness benefits like gym memberships and steps challenges, and relying on EAPs for therapeutic intervention...while these perks are all lovely, they're tertiary (or reactive) interventions that don't address workplace well-being. In some cases, they even make it worse. So, if you're investing in the wrong interventions, it becomes clear why there isn't a return! And it makes sense that business owners are hesitant to invest in well-being initiatives moving forward. This can become incredibly stressful for those business leaders who DO care deeply, as they feel they have to go against their values and moral code to run a successful business.?Burnout city, right there! To ensure people's mental health and well-being are in a good place, we need to look at your organizational systems on an institutional level. Usually, it simply means tweaking some processes and providing clarity and structure to existing operations. For some organizations, it might be more, but it's usually more straightforward and accessible than we think. It's possible and reasonable to have teams that are mentally well while having a thriving business. At Healthy Pour, we help business owners and leaders (like you!) who care for both their teams and their businesses. With Healthy Pour, everyone thrives. You don't have to choose. And once your systems are in a good place, that yoga perk will do wonders for your culture.
