Wellbeing in the workplace is at the heart of today's corporate culture. Corporate benefits are an effective strategy to promote the mental and physical well-being of employees while strengthening the employer brand and improving employee retention. However, even the most generous benefits fall short of their purpose if they are not carefully aligned and the company culture is not considered holistically. Using insights and examples, Urban Sports Club shows how these principles can be successfully integrated into a benefits program and implemented in corporate practice.

Is it still appropriate to think of everything in black and white? Instead of remaining stuck in rigid pigeonholes, we should be looking for resilient and flexible approaches. Perhaps the key lies in recognizing that we can actively shape the world of work and that different situations also require different skills. Let's end the session together with the realization that self-reflection, appreciation, room for questions and clear management skills are the cornerstones of a successful leadership formula.
