LOOKING TO THE FUTURE
One of the more momentous projects we worked on last year was a process over several months in which WCWI’s staff and Board of Directors examined our beliefs and values and how we deliver meaningful service and actionable support. We did this through in-depth focus groups with Board members, days of staff brainstorming, keeping a close pulse on the conversations in the national employee wellness industry and in our communities, and most importantly listening to what you - our members - were telling us.
As a result of this project, I’m happy to reveal a summary of WCWI’s core belief about employee wellbeing, the competencies that drive your member experience, and the values that we live every day to serve and support you.
WCWI’S CORE BELIEF THAT DRIVES OUR WORK
WCWI believes that employee wellbeing is a foundational strategy and business priority for every employer of all sectors, industries, and sizes. As a professional development and consultation organization for wellness strategists, culture designers, and people leaders, we will help your organization shift employee wellbeing to a foundational strategy that is valued and understood by all.

WCWI’S VALUES - OUR GUIDING PRINCIPLES
We believe in the significance of wellbeing
Wellbeing is essential and it’s a right that should be afforded to all. WCWI catalyzes wellbeing in organizations as foundational, strategic, and systemic. We're at our best when we're grounded in our own wellbeing.
We cherish growth
Change is inevitable in our dynamic wellness industry. We accept challenges with a posture of resilience. For us, growth is born from creativity and innovation and the continuous desire to be better.
We craft the narrative
We remain students of the human experience. We continuously listen and respond to our members’ voices and to the needs of our people. We tell the stories of the data, the workforce, Wisconsin’s employers, and our fellow wellbeing strategists.
We bravely act together
We are courageous in our work to widen the scope of wellbeing and to transform Wisconsin’s workforce. We strive to see through all lenses and to be driven by empathy and compassion. We seek diverse perspectives and ideas and we make space that is welcoming for all. If we have to call on our bravery, we’re doing something right.
For what’s next:
This year, we’re making your personal and professional growth a priority and we will be curating resources, learning, and networking aligned with these values. I’m grateful for the contributions of our members, sponsors and partners, Board of Directors, and staff in our shared responsibility to advance employee wellbeing. I look to the possibility of the future – guided by our belief, competencies, and values – to work with you to create strategic change and unleash the power of designed-cultures where employees will feel a sense of community, purpose, and impact.
