Balanced & Thriving: The Intersection of Profit, Purpose, and People

Rewriting the Profit Playbook: How Employee Well-being Drives Sustainable Success

Hello ACCESS Pioneer,

In today’s competitive landscape, companies that prioritize employee well-being are seeing both cultural and financial gains. Prioritizing well-being doesn’t detract from profit; instead, it enhances it by creating resilient, loyal, and innovative teams. Data from Gallup shows that companies with engaged and well-supported employees achieve 21% higher profitability and experience 59% less turnover than those with unaddressed well-being concerns.

Employee well-being is foundational to mission achievement. When companies weave well-being into their core values and practices, they lay the groundwork for a robust culture where employees are fully present, motivated, and productive. However, achieving this alignment requires an intentional approach, viewing employee well-being as a strategic priority that complements, rather than competes with, organizational goals.

In this expanded edition, we dive into the qualitative shifts and specific actions your organization can take to develop a profit-aligned approach to employee well-being—an approach that turns your people into your greatest asset for mission fulfillment.
