Workplace wellbeing – reflect, reset and reimagine

Conscious and sustainable practice for the future of work.

This event will run as a joint event with the Faculty of Business and Law | University of Roehampton, London.

These talk series will enable people practitioners to apply the CIPD Professional Values of being “principles led, evidence based and outcomes driven” in championing conscious and sustainable practice for the future of work.

Is your workplace truly supporting happier, healthier people – or just ticking the wellbeing box?
Join us for an engaging, thought-provoking event designed for leaders, HR and Wellbeing professionals. This interactive session offers a chance to pause, reflect on what’s working (and what isn’t), and reimagine a more impactful, inclusive and measurable approach to workplace wellbeing.

Highlights are drawn from the most recent CIPD survey report on Health and Wellbeing at Work and enriched with real case studies from The Issues@Work Clinic, we’ll explore the internal and external dynamics that shape wellbeing in today’s workplaces.

Whether you’re reviewing your current wellbeing strategy or starting afresh, this session will equip you with insights and ideas to create better work and better lives.

The speakers will discuss and share information on:

Personality, neurodiversity and individual differences

• Understanding personality styles
• Consider wellbeing as a personal and internal experience
• Explore unconscious motives underpinning behaviours in the workplace
• Identifying and understanding individual differences
• Strategies people take to manage wellbeing

Enabling healthy digital habits and culture

• Case study scenario learning on how to foster healthier relationships with technology in a hybrid world

From insight to impact

• How do we then create better work and better lives – and re-imagine wellbeing by design?
• The role of the “mindful manager”
• Measuring what matters: evaluating wellbeing outcomes

Reimagining wellbeing

• Creating Future-fit wellbeing strategies and options that are inclusive for all

What attendees will gain

Participants will leave with practical tools and coaching-based approaches to reassess existing wellbeing strategies and co-design interventions that effectively support diverse needs while strengthening organisational resilience.
