The document discusses individual well-being and purpose. It provides research showing that exercising regularly and eating healthy can improve job performance. Additionally, having a sense of meaning and purpose in life is linked to greater happiness and life satisfaction. The document advocates developing a "well-being map" to holistically support internal elements like purpose, emotional health, and strengths as well as external elements like work, family, and community. The goal is to focus on living purposefully rather than solely pursuing happiness.

Editor's Notes
- What ‘well-being in the workplace’ has meant during the past decade [create 1 slide] On-site gyms and discount membership Wellness assessment programs Programs Insurance incentives on exercise, tobacco cessation Definition of Well-being [or do we start out with ‘what makes a human whole?’] [create 1 slide] Our Research (clear references of where we got we have determined!) introduce: Internal Well-being- Health External Well-being - Community Human Value (allude to it or for 4 hour session only) The link to demonstrating value, yields value More than just ‘hands’ in a knowledge economy Increasingly seek place to engage vs. just a job Ref: http://www.astd.org/Publications/Magazines/TD/TD-Archive/2013/04/Intelligence-Employee-Health-a-Growing-Company-Concern?cm_mmc=bronto-_-email-_-marketing-_-zs-2013.04.16-cop-humancapital-newsletter-april&email=kori%40leadthedifference.com&utm_medium=email&utm_source=bronto&utm_campaign=zs-2013.04.16-cop-humancapital-newsletter-april
- Clearly make case that individuals are motivated by different things. Each individual can attest to the things that work and don’t work – can confirm that when they are not sleeping well, eating well, overweight, etc. they are less effective. What do they need to create a more holistic approach to self? AND drive that approach?!
- EUDIMONIC WELL-BEING. Reference: http://psychfaculty.gmu.edu/kashdan/publications/jrp_beinggood.pdf Build case for valuing self, take care of self, then can show value and take care of others, then you can be your best, others can be their best. Not instead of good business focus but a compliment and accelerant to it. START from a place of eudiamonic well being, vs. feelings of happiness. Links well-being to purpose. You are your ‘home’ for life, for leadership, from which all things you do are built from. Keeping your ‘home’ in repair helps to ensure you are able to do your role, to s upport othes. Your home is unique to you, only you know what you need to keep it up and when! When I think of home I also think about my family that lives there and friends that visit. Supported by a community of meaning/purpose/greater aspirations.
- Ask participants to write down their purpose after introducing purpose as a foundation to life being. Where we are headed, starts with the INDIVIDUAL mapping out and designing his/her own blueprint Introduce link to purpose Generational elements, demands of workplace, connections while also virtual, meaning, purpose, movement – connect to the individual through their needs Individual sense of purpose begins with self. Then all individuals are able to better connect the organization’s purpose through their own.
- Summary – ‘here is well-being’ our definition, their work as a foundation of leadership self. CHALLENGE WHAT LEADERSHIP WITH WELL-BEING LOOKS LIKE – MAYBE DESCRIBE THE ENVIRONMENT EMPOWERMENT, ACCOUNTABILITY, SUPPORT, CREATIVITY, HAPPINESS, ALL COMING FROM LEADERSHIP EMULATING WELL-BEING FROM SELF, ETC. Tee up an INTEGRATED leadership lens. Is it just well-being? What does Well-being support or is supported by? How do the humans who are ‘well’ contribute, are measured, lead the org through change and innovation?

- http://online.wsj.com/news/articles/SB10001424052748704893604576200471545379388 Employee driven – individualized – leader drives own well-being as a role model and then supports employee taking own self into planning and results. we are not clear about what this means since we are ‘doing unto’ vs. with or in support of one’s chose path More than just ‘hands’ in a knowledge economy Increasingly seek place to engage vs. just a job what is a leaders job? Not manager but actual leader? You can still have command w/o being controlling?
- We live in a world of getting by vs. one that accepts a culture of happiness and its links to productivity and overall well-being. 75% of workers are actively looking for or open to leaving their current employer JobVite 2012. Stress will be the greatest concern of the next decade for our workplaces. Humana CEO, Dec 2012 Presentation to Net Impact National organization webinar They are increasingly seeking more purpose-based opportunities where they can contribute in meaningful ways.
