We all crave that gold star, that reward for doing our job. In this slideshare, we share a strategy for Corporate Wellness Managers that not only boosts participation and engagement in your wellness program, but also helps everyone feel more appreciated - including you.

1. The hardest part of being a
Wellness Manager is…

2. Feeling unappreciated.

3. Your whole job is about
helping people feel better.
The reason you come to
work each day is to help
people.

4. You personally
understand the
benefits of
feeling healthy.

5. You know employees will feel
better and your business will do
better if employees took part in
your Wellness program.
So why is it such an uphill battle?

6. Is for employees to take up the great
initiatives you’ve created.
You want managers to stop seeing
you as an obstacle and just help you
help their team.
And a little thank you wouldn’t go
astray either.
All you want…

7. One of the greatest
human needs is to be
appreciated.
We all crave that gold
star, that reward, even if
we don’t admit it to
ourselves.

8. And, ironically, that’s
the secret for getting
your employees to
appreciate and engage
in your program:
reward.

9. • Reward employees for being
healthy.
• Reward participation,
engagement & improvement.
• Reward those who motivate
others.
• Reward those who go out of their
way to help organise extra
activities.
• Reward employees who simply
get into the spirit of the program.

10. The trick is to ensure the rewards
system is inbuilt into your program.
For example, in our Activate platform,
employees earn points and badges
for doing healthy activities. They can
even earn points for using your online
HR systems such as learning &
development modules
The more they do, the more they
earn.

11. As well as doing set
challenges and compulsory
health checks, employees
can choose to do their own
programs and track their
daily health habits to earn
more points.

12. Our most successful Activate clients
…integrate their existing employee incentives and rewards program
into the Activate platform.
For example, they use the Activate system to reward “Living Values” or
“CEO’s Employee of the Month”.

14. Automate your rewards system
Activate keeps track of every employee’s participation and healthy
actions for you.
No more spreadsheets or paper forms.
All geared to reward healthy behaviours.

15. When your employees feel
appreciated and rewarded for
taking part, they’ll appreciate
their Wellness program more.
And you’ll feel appreciated too.
