In this episode we'll be talking about creating overall wellbeing programs in the workplace with Uploan featuring our special guest Jennifer Simons-Castillo of Uploan and Level Up Podcast.

It’s been more than a year in varying degrees of lockdowns in an effort to curb the spread of the COVID-19 virus. Businesses continue to look into ways to keep operations flowing while keeping their employees feeling safe. Various surveys have gone out to the workforce to see how we can safeguard our employees’ overall well being through employee programs.

For leaders: what should we be looking at or listening to when creating these programs? For employees: what are the important things you should be saying to help in program creation and culture building? It takes two to tango. How do we get both sides to empower each other to make great programs work in the workplace? What we say (or don’t say) make a difference in wellbeing program creation.

Jenn is the communications manager of Uploan Philippines, and is the producer and host of the Level Up Podcast. She is a communications expert, looking for meaningful ways to cultivate employee wellness. Her thrust: Making employee wellness a priority, because it makes business sense.

We are fast approaching the end of one of the most epic years in our lifetime. We have sailed uncharted waters, we’ve been tossed around by angry waves, been blessed with good wind at times, and have also experienced still waters that would stretch for days.  We survived, ladies and gents!  We may sometimes feel that there is still no land in sight and that the current may still be unpredictable, but what’s important is we are all moving forward. Sail away, sail strong, head held up high with a smile on our faces.

In this episode, Bea sits down with Natasha Bautista, Operations Head of QBO Innovation Hub for a discussion about the Philippine startup community. With the whole world slowly adjusting to the new normal, how is the local startup ecosystem fairing? How can local startups survive and thrive in the post-pandemic world?
