Mindful
Moment

From Self-Care to WE-Care
● Culture

● Employee
Engagement
● Programs
and
Activities
● Nudges
and
Cues
● Policies,
Strategy

Changing
An
Organizational
Culture
That
Eats
French

Fries
for
Breakfast
Organizational
leaders
model
self-‐care
and

don’t
ridicule
it,

ignore
it,
or
give
lip
service
When
employees
are
engaged
in
creating
a

culture
of
we-‐care
or
else
there
will
be

either
a
steak
and
scotch
rebellion
or

frequent
self-‐care
abusers
Not
a
quick
fix
with
tactics
or
activities,

requires
patience

Wellbeing Is Embedded in the Culture

Crisis

Network:
Listen
and
Engage

5:

Fulfillment
Do
people
feel
like
they
are
inspired
and
working
towards
a

higher
purpose?
