SHRM 2017 Annual Conference & Exposition

Workplace Application: You will learn how to combine the positive nature of behavior change with the business side in optimizing an employee wellness program design.

PowerPoints/Handouts Available

As an HR Manager, you believe in the value of wellness, but it can be a struggle to align the art of positive behavior change with the science of producing the necessary outcomes. This session will provide practical ways in which the two can be successfully combined and integrated into an effective “dance” within your organization. At the end of this session you will:

· Understand the key concepts around the art of positive behavior change in wellness programming.

· Recognize the importance of a sound business strategy.

· Be able to identify specific ways in which the two key components can move and flow as one
in the overall approach to wellness.
