This week, your Discussion and Assignment will focus on preparing a proposal for management on health and wellness services through a teamwork initiative. Please read the scenario below.
Introduction to Health & Wellness Management
Students will prepare a rationale and expected results from implementing mind/body exercises or practices within an employee wellness program to reduce stress. [Scenario]
This week’s Assignment consists of reading about physical exercises and mind/body practices to reduce stress in the workplace thus improving morale, cultural engagement, and overall reduction of health care costs. Employers are interested in keeping their organizations healthy and employees have expressed an interest in mind/body exercises or practices at the worksite. After reading this information, students should decide on the best programs to offer employers benefits in reducing stress, having little or no capital outlay [equipment and labor], and describing associated health benefits.
This proposal should consist of a strong rationale, chosen mind/body exercise programs or practices, capital outlay, and benefits.
For the Discussion Board, students need to identify a classmate. Each student will pitch their proposed ideas briefly to ask their partner for feedback. The pitch should be around 200 words with the response around 75. Once students have pitched and received feedback on the Discussion Board for their proposal, the next step is preparing the proposal.
