Program C-2.  Organize an Award-Winning Wellness Program. This session outlines an effective, organized, data-driven approach to workplace wellness. Discover seven steps to wellness program design and identify what it takes to move your current wellness program to the next level. While we all know intuitively that targeting weight-management, inactivity, and smoking has a broad impact on employee health, you still must learn how to gather specific data to determine the programs that are right for you. This session helps you find the necessary resources in your community, generate management support for wellness, and structure and roll out effective programs and interventions.
