Workplace Wellness - Lizzie Benton, Liberty Mind UK

What struck ewe most from this episode - and why? Lizzie Benton describes herself as a "progressive culture coach".  Her business Liberty Mind helps its clients to adopt an alternative way of working that unleashes people to create their best work. In this episode Lizzie shares her thoughts on the world of wellbeing in the workplace - or not "wellbeing" perhaps. For example: - it"s NOT a separate entity, a label which can come across as patronising or condescending - it"s NOT always something for which the HR department should have total responsibility - it"s NOT about covering every single eventuality (clue: it is about mutual trust) - it"s NOT a "should do" exercise, it"s key to future recruitment and talent retention Lizzie also shares truly helpful insights for those, possibly larger, organisations where traditional blueprints may be harder to discard and start afresh. And as is our habit, here"s the books by Elizabeth Gilbert that Lizzie mentioned: Eat Pray Love and Big Magic - Creative Living Beyond Fear. Questions?  Ping them our way!
