Navigating Stress and Sustaining Peak Performance with Brain Science

Statistics and trends in wellness point to the power of a healthy workforce in decreasing absenteeism, turnover and healthcare costs.   Beyond financial savings, employing a healthy workforce brings increased productivity and employee satisfaction, making it a win/win for companies to sponsor wellness programs.  

Traditionally, these programs have revolved around local health fairs, corporate gym memberships and organic food in the company sponsored café – all a good step forward.  However, these same ‘wellness programs’ can become another ‘thing to do’, separate from our actual work, and potentially add on to the stress employees may already experience.  

The latest brain research suggests that there is not only a strong connection between stress and productivity - in our VUCA (volatile, uncertain, complex, ambiguous) world - there is an epidemic of stress that is potentially the greatest threat to our health and performance.  

So what is wellness?  And how can companies, teams and leaders inspire a healthy corporate culture to not only decrease spiraling health-related costs but also facilitate sustainable peak performance?  

As we explore the theme of Corporate Wellness, BOLD is pleased to invite Daniel Friedland, MD, an internationally recognized thought leader, educator and consultant on Evidence-based Medicine, Health, Wellness and Productivity to discuss a confluence of trends that set the stage for the next generation of corporate wellness including an innovate program he has designed. This 4 in 4 Framework program leverages key research in brain science to provide skills and practices that have been shown to rewire and transform the brain to become more resilient and achieve peak performance.
