Why Most Corporate 'Wellbeing' Programs Fail (And What Actually Works)


Listen Later

As we head into the final stretch before Christmas, I’ve been out speaking with local businesses and one thing keeps coming up. Most wellbeing programmes simply don’t work.

In this episode I break down why so many corporate wellbeing schemes become box-ticking exercises, why high performers hide their struggles, and why January pushes people back into the same old routines that never fit their life in the first place.

Drawing on years of coaching busy professionals, I share what actually helps people feel better, perform at a higher level and stay consistent when life is demanding.

We cover:

• Why generic apps, one-off webinars and “free fruit” don’t solve real problems

• Why professionals lose energy and confidence, yet never speak up at work

• The pillars that genuinely move the needle, like structure, accountability and community and why they aren't done effectively in wellbeing programs

• Why features don’t matter unless they lead to real behaviour change

• Practical ideas for any business that wants a healthier, more resilient team

Whether you work in HR, run a business or just want a more sustainable plan for yourself in the new year, this episode will give you clarity on what actually works.

No fluff, no gimmicks, just practical insight from working with real people every day.

Listen in, and feel free to share it with someone who needs a clearer plan before January hits.
