𝗘𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗼𝘆𝗲𝗲: "I’m putting in my notice." 𝗛𝗥: "Why?" 𝗘𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗼𝘆𝗲𝗲: "I feel burnt out and I don’t think this company does a lot to support my mental health." 𝗛𝗥:"But what about the free yoga class we held last year?" 𝗟𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗼𝗻 𝗟𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗻𝗲𝗱: ⬇️ A single mental health initiative isn't enough to address the ongoing needs of your employees. Mental health is a continuous challenge, requiring persistent support and diverse strategies that go beyond one-size-fits-all solutions. Not everyone loves yoga, and not every issue can be addressed with a yoga class or a gym membership. Unlike occasional activities, syd™ provides 24/7 personalised support, tailored to meet the unique needs of each employee. This means your company can offer real-time, customised assistance to help maintain and improve life quality for every team member.

Yesterday, Lorena Puica attended the prestigious UBS Private Companies Showcase in London, where she was a standout panelist on "AI Revolutionizing Health and Wellness." During the panel, Lorena shared valuable insights that underscore the pivotal role AI plays in healthtech. Here’s a breakdown of her key points: 𝟭. 𝗟𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗕𝗶𝗴 𝗗𝗮𝘁𝗮 Humans can typically hold about 3-5 data points in memory at once—not nearly enough to offer personalized advice at scale. AI changes this, allowing us to store and analyze billions of data points to deliver context-rich, personalized health recommendations 𝟮. 𝗣𝗿𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗰𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗣𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗿 With its vast data-handling capabilities, AI enhances decision-making in health management, allowing for early predictions of health issues before they escalate. 𝟯. 𝗦𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗮𝗯𝗶𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗘𝗳𝗳𝗶𝗰𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝘆 In regions where healthcare systems are still developing, AI offers a cost-efficient solution to reach large populations. By bypassing traditional infrastructure and utilizing digital devices, AI technology can potentially impact hundreds of millions of lives. At syd™, we are excited about how AI not only enhances our ability to understand and use information but also empowers us to provide tailored health solutions on an individual level. Stay tuned for more insights from the conference as we continue to explore the revolution AI is bringing to health and wellness. #AIInHealthcare #UBSShowcase #HealthTech #Innovation #DigitalHealth #TechTalks #AI #HealthcareInnovation

𝗜𝘀 #𝗪𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗯𝗲𝗶𝗻𝗴𝗪𝗲𝗲𝗸 𝗝𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝗮 𝗕𝗼𝘅-𝗧𝗶𝗰𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗘𝘅𝗲𝗿𝗰𝗶𝘀𝗲? This #WellbeingWeek, let’s talk candidly. While dedicating a week to mental health awareness and employee wellness initiatives is a great start, can we really say we’re committed to wellbeing if we’re only focusing on it one week a year? True commitment to employee wellbeing means integrating supportive practices into every day of work, not just when it’s highlighted on the calendar. Our platform ensures that wellbeing isn't just an annual agenda item but a daily priority, offering continuous, personalized support to help everyone manage their life quality effortlessly and effectively. 👉 Remember, real sustainable change comes from consistent action, not periodic attention or corporate hype. #HR #employeeengagement #workculture #WellbeingAtWork #EmployeeWellbeing #HRManagement
