| A common question at companies is how to create a meaningful and effective mission and vision statements for health and wellness in business. |
Companies are now prioritizing wellness programming, and having a well-crafted mission statement can assist in overcoming the challenge of programs lacking organization and consistent wellness communication – two vitally important characteristics when it comes to impacting employee’s health.
Alex Haschen, Wellness Adherence Director at Burnalong, works with clients everyday crafting vision and mission statements and helping to set up effective wellness committees. He says:
It’s amazing how a few seemingly simple sentences have a huge impact. I see it at company after company. The reason is that it helps define programming and mindset.”
The mission statement serves to check wellness efforts, and make sure they are in line with the company’s goals. A wellness mission statement helps keep wellness committees organized, spending efficient, and messaging consistent and effective.
The basic components of the statement should reflect what the wellness program strives to accomplish. When you are considering the addition of a new event, offering, or vendor, refer to your wellness mission statement to make sure it / they accomplish the goals you set.
Topics to consider:

Be efficient with your words and make sure it adheres to the following guidelines:
Any successful program, project, or event requires a benchmark to be evaluated on. Your wellness program is no different.
