Thank you for attending!

The focus on employee well-being is increasing as employers and employees continue to adjust to changes in the way we work and address mental and emotional needs. Establishing a culture of inclusion is one way that we can increase connectedness in the workplace and help employees thrive. During this session, attendees will learn about the power of inclusion and how establishing a culture of inclusion influences a sense of belonging and belonginess.

In this session, you will:

• Level set on the meanings of diversity and inclusion
• Learn about inclusion – what it looks like and feels like in action – and how it contributes to employee well-being 
• Gain understanding about the importance of respect and understanding each person’s “story”
• Learn about best practices to promote a culture of inclusion in organizations and companies
   

It's no secret that burnout is getting worse. Most recent reports estimate that over 50% of workers are experiencing burnout in some form. And, the corporate training world has certainly taken notice. It seems like every week there’s a new onslaught of articles, experts, and workplace happiness gurus claiming to have the well-being program that will solve all our problems — usually in the form of a “few simple steps” that employees can “easily implement now.”

But, let’s be real: there’s nothing simple about it. Do we actually think that more yoga and massages and meditation and self reflection exercises are going to get us out of this? Are we truly that blind to what’s actually happening? Or are we just too scared to face it?

In this session, you will learn:

• What the true causes of burnout are, and why individual actions aren’t effective.
• How organizations can create systemic change to build safe and sustainable working environments.
• Where the conversation surrounding workplace well-being needs to go next, and how to influence that shift within your organization.
