So You Want to be Supportive in a Crisis...Limeade
A recent Gartner poll shows that 88% of organizations in the U.S. have encouraged or required employees to work remotely due to coronavirus. That means millions of employees were forced to change the way they live and work almost overnight, and employers were faced with new and challenging ways to support and manage their workforces. Long time partners, Fitbit Health Solutions and Limeade come together to discuss the ways in which our companies are supporting both individuals and organizations through this unprecedented time.
The key to building a successful workplace wellness program is to connect its overall design to your organizational culture. Why? Because employees want to participate in activities that authentically reflect your core values and business goals.
In this webinar, TalentCulture Founder & CEO Meghan Biro will talk about how to define and assess corporate culture, the tools you need to help employees engage in well-being and the importance of exemplary leadership.

Aligning employee well-being with your cultureLimeade
Watch our webinar to learn how to take your well-being program to the next level in this panel discussion featuring Limeade Chief People Officer Dr. Laura Hamill, Exubrancy Chief Executive Officer Liz Wilkes and CultureIQ Head of Culture Strategy David Shanklin.
To create a healthier and more productive workforce, organizations have begun to expand their traditional view of wellness programs to focus on overall employee well-being. This new view extends beyond physical health to include emotional/mental, spiritual and financial well-being. Additionally, well-being takes a “holistic” view of the employee and incorporates other elements such as social well-being that includes relationships both in and outside of the workplace.
Managing the “whole employee” means acknowledging that everyone is multidimensional and has numerous roles to balance in life — all of which affect job performance. The “whole employee” concept is also about allowing the employee to bring their “whole” self to work. This means that physical well-being is not just about offering health screenings and assessments to your employees but also making real cultural changes in the workplace that allow employees to truly shut down when they clock out at the end of the day.
In this webinar, you will learn:
What the difference is between wellness and well-being.
What role well-being plays in the engagement of an organization’s employees.
How to embed well-being into the culture of your organization.

Up Your Analytics Game: How to Empower People to Take ActionNaba Ahmed
HR leaders in Financial Services are adopting the use of data and analytics faster than many other business functions and job roles. For so long their focus has been within the HR function; they express doubt regarding their ability to collaborate effectively with their Finance counterparts to uncover actionable insights. In fact, in a recent survey of 450 Financial Services professionals, 95% of respondents agreed that better integration of HR and Finance data was a top priority for the year.
Why is this so important? Because the demands on HR have changed significantly, as HR leaders move into a more strategic role. It requires both an increasingly forward-looking workforce strategy, and quantification of HR’s business contributions. This is compounded for the Financial Services sector, which is faced with rapidly changing regulatory and compliance requirements, and the need to attract and retain tech-savvy talent in an industry that is sometimes viewed as more traditional and less tech-savvy.
Join our webcast featuring top-ranked analyst and bestselling author of Competing on Analytics, Tom Davenport, to learn how analytics technology provides HR with unique insights that create strategic value.

Transitioning to HR Tech: Leveraging Technology to Automate HR Naba Ahmed
