Wellness programs. Perks. Initiatives. We've all seen them. But here’s the truth: They’re not entirely working. Despite all the money and effort poured into wellness, employee morale is still slipping, burnout is still high, and satisfaction is at an all-time low. So, what’s the missing piece?

Join us for this free 75-minute interactive community discussion with Patricia Grabarek, PhD and Katina Sawyer, PhD – industrial/organizational psychologists and co-founders of Workr Beeing –  to discuss their book, Leading for Wellness: How to Create a Team Culture Where Everyone Thrives. **You also do not have to have read the book to attend the session. 

These authors have spent decades researching employee well-being and their findings show that many organizations misunderstand wellness—it’s not about checking boxes or offering trendy perks – it's about leadership. True wellness stems from leaders who improve everyday conditions that directly impact employee satisfaction and performance.

 Leading for Wellness: How to Create a Team Culture Where Everyone Thrives, provides a science-backed blueprint for fostering healthier, more productive work environments. Drawing from two comprehensive studies and numerous real-life examples, they outline actionable steps for leaders to become “Generators”—those who cultivate genuine connections, create a positive team culture, and help employees achieve their work and life goals.
