What is Wellness Management?
Wellness Management is the fusion of 3 disciplines: Health Management; Human Resource Management and Business Improvement and is seen by many as the next, (third) generation of people management.
Wellness Management is summed up by the formula:
Well people + Well managed = A well organisation
Wellness Management is designed for a world of work and life which is getting ever faster in pace; growing pressures and higher levels of uncertainty. The power of the approach is the fusion of the three disciplines as well as the understanding and management of the inter-relations between the three different components.
The goals of Wellness Management are to enable organisations, teams and individuals to sustain higher levels of performance as well as for individuals to enjoy life even more.
The benefits of Wellness Management can begin within hours and be sustainable for years. These benefits are attainable for all types of organisations: multi -nationals, small enterprises and public to private sector as well as third sector. Equally Wellness Management works in many different cultures and is growing rapidly around the world.
The principles of Wellness Management are about balancing employer and employee responsibilities with positive language; a proactive not reactive apprpach; self enablement and employee, not expert led.
