Companies can’t afford to address their employees’ cognitive capacities — their focus, time management, and critical-thinking skills — while ignoring their physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being.

There was some point at which corporations became responsible for more than delivering high qualify services and products..where they became responsible for emotional/spiritual growth. But, the question is: Do we as employees want an entity constructed to provide shareholder value to take ownership of our personal development?

An employee's cognitive capacities go hand-in-hand with their aggregated wellness. Want top-notch corporate athletes (Olympic Dream Team level)? You need to know and fully invest in training, motivation, and a high level of inspiration. You need to know your people and care about them to do this. The problem is that folks don't know their employees and don't care.

Absolutely agree, It's fascinating how interconnected our cognitive capacities are with our overall well-being. When companies invest in a holistic approach, they not only enhance productivity but also foster a more engaged and resilient workforce.

So true. I have had to walk out on a job for that exact reason. I will spare that multi-billion dollar corporation the shame of mentioning it's name on the internet, though.
