| Abstract: Does “employee wellness” conjure up images of questionable products and pseudoscience instead of research-based approaches to employee experience? Then, this presentation is for you. In today's dynamic and demanding work environments, employee wellness has emerged as a paramount concern – especially for organizations laboring under burnout and turnover.
Learn how Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs) can foster an engaged and satisfied workforce, enhance productivity, and boost worker satisfaction through behavior-based employee wellness programs. This presentation reinterprets research-based wellness frameworks through a behavior analytic lens; from how to analyze and harness cultural selection to creative strategies for measuring behavior-based wellness.
Practical strategies for service delivery will be provided, including how to align wellness initiatives to an organization’s mission, vision, and values, and how to gain buy in from stakeholders. Finally, research and strategies on measuring return on investment (ROI) and methods of tying wellness to organizational key performance indicators (KPIs) will be provided to empower BCBAs to create a culture of health, reduce absenteeism, and boost productivity. |
