Employee wellness programs are everywhere, but are they actually making a difference? In this episode of The Elephant in the Org, Danny, Marion, and Cacha tackle the big questions about workplace wellness. From flashy perks and meditation apps to the critical need for psychological safety, we’re breaking down why so many wellness initiatives fall flat—and what companies need to do differently.
💡 Highlights from this episode:
- Why wellness programs often fail to move from intent to impact.
- The role of middle managers as the unsung heroes (and burnout victims) of workplace wellness.
- How return-to-office policies are taking a toll on employee health, especially for those with disabilities.
- The toxic trap of hustle culture—and why it’s time to let it go.
- Practical steps to embed well-being into your organization’s culture all year round.
