  1. annual conference – in pictures This event took place on 1st November 2012 and we had an official artist-in-residence, Julian Burton.

  2. The overall theme of the conference was ‘Who is responsible for employee well-being?’. We aimed to explore not just which department it sits in, but how these departments interact with CEOs, budget holders, line managers and employees – and operate in line with professional bodies and in light of national well-being activity.

  3. Ann Francke, CEO at Chartered Management Institute, highlighted the role that managers can play, and made the business case for funding management training. More detail: Click here to read Les Worrall and Cary Cooper’s CMI report on management well-being.

  4. The importance of a supportive CEO couldn’t have been illustrated better than by John Timpson’s keynote speech. More detail: Click here to watch the video.

  5. With so many people having to ‘do more with less’ at work morale is at risk and stress is a growing concern. This means the need to prioritise well-being and resilience is greater than ever. There were calls to action from Cary Cooper and Ann Francke for HR and other responsible business functions to build the business case and safeguard funding.

  6. During the panel session Will Hutton talked about the risk of profit without purpose, and called on organisations to examine their business purpose.

  7. The importance of employee freedom was a common theme throughout the day - we know that autonomy is one of the 6 Essentials of workplace well-being.   Tom Nixon, ambassador for WorldBlu (who promote freedom and democracy at work) explored what we could achieve if we had freedom from fear.
