In this episode, Karen Kirton shares practical and evidence-based ways to build a culture of wellbeing that actually drives performance,  not one that slows it down. Across Australia, work-related mental health claims are rising, and new regulations mean every business has a legal duty to manage psychosocial risks. But beyond compliance, creating a workplace that genuinely supports wellbeing leads to higher productivity, better retention, and stronger customer outcomes. Karen unpacks the latest Australian data, research from Harvard and Oxford, and a simple 12-week plan that any small or medium-sized business can use to improve both wellbeing and results.  You’ll learn: ✅ How wellbeing links directly to productivity, retention, and customer satisfaction ✅ The five biggest risks and benefits that every business leader should know ✅ A practical, three-step approach to improve wellbeing in your team within 12 weeks This isn’t about yoga mats or ping-pong tables. It’s about smart, people-focused leadership that lifts engagement and performance at the same time. Make sure to subscribe to stay updated with new releases every second Monday!  Visit amplifyhr.com.au for more insights and resources.  Also Mentioned in This Episode: Dr. Renée Richardson Gosline Krekel, Ward, De Neve, Harvard Business School chapter https://www.hbs.edu/ris/Publication%20Files/gh19_ch5_9e171d71-db54-4e08-a2eb-3cf1587daf4a.pdf Oxford Wellbeing Research Centre Working Paper 2304 https://wellbeing.hmc.ox.ac.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/2304-WP-Workplace-Wellbeing-and-Firm-Performance-DOI-2024.pdf Safe Work Australia, Key Work Health and Safety Statistics https://data.safeworkaustralia.gov.au/sites/default/files/2024-09/Final%20-%20Key%20WHS%20Stats%202024_18SEP.pdf Mazzetti et al., 2021, JD R meta analysis https://dspace.library.uu.nl/bitstream/handle/1874/431729/mazzetti-et-al-2021-work-engagement-a-meta-analysis-using-the-job-demands-resources-model.pdf Send us a textGet our free eBook packed with practical strategies to attract, engage, and retain top talent.
