Hi my LinkedIn family! 🌞 As summer comes to an end, I’m reflecting on the valuable lessons it offers for us. Here are three key takeaways: 1. **Nurture Connections**: Summer is often a time for gatherings and reconnecting with friends and family. Let’s prioritize building strong relationships within our teams, fostering collaboration and support that enhances workplace camaraderie. 2. **Prioritize Well-Being**: Just as summer encourages us to enjoy the outdoors and stay active, we should promote wellness initiatives that encourage physical and mental health among employees. 3. **Set Clear Goals**: The end of summer signals a transition, making it a perfect time to reflect and set clear goals for the upcoming months. Wishing everyone a productive and joyful end of summer! #HR Girl #SummerVibes Please share your thoughts too.

Picture says it all for Hump day’s message over here, with love...and during the 5th year of World Wellbeing Week. Here’s to seizing the opportunities that abound for focused awareness on, and celebrating what lights us up. Here are some Keys that serve well: 🗝️Refresh your understanding of well-being. 🗝️Define your own well-being priorities (at least 6 key areas in life that matter most to you). 🗝️Assess how much attention you currently give to each of the key areas (rating scale). 🗝️Take action (lean into #inspiration and what you truly #love, not just motivation). These keys not only help us to identify areas to #focus on for personal growth; they also ignite our true power of choice for realizing 'better', every moment, every time. And this... truly feels empowering! 💙 #wellbeing #empowerment #innerbrilliance #worldwellbeing #awareness

🍂 **Bringing a Little Sunshine to People Practice this October!** ☀️ As we move into toward the heart of autumn, there’s no better time to reflect on how we, as HR professionals, can bring a bit of **sunshine** into our workplaces. While the days may be getting shorter, our ability to create **positive, uplifting experiences** for our teams is as bright as ever. This October, let’s focus on **positive people practice** that warms the hearts and minds of those we support. Whether it’s a small gesture of appreciation, a thoughtful wellbeing initiative, or simply being that listening ear, these moments can make all the difference. We have the privilege of **nurturing workplace cultures** where people feel seen, valued, and inspired—even as the seasons shift. It’s about celebrating **human connection**, showing empathy, and bringing out the best in each other. Every small action we take to enhance the employee experience lights up the path forward, especially as we navigate the cozy, reflective season of autumn. So, let’s carry that spirit of positivity with us. **What’s one way you’re bringing a little extra sunshine into your people practices this month?** ☀️🍁 #PositivePeoplePractice #AutumnVibes #HRInspiration #BringingTheSunshine #PeopleFirst #CultureOfCare #FutureOfWork #EmployeeExperience

Happiness is a Fundamental Human Goal. Today is a day to be happy! While there's plenty of work ahead, we're also fortunate to live in a more inclusive society than before, one that prioritizes happiness and promotes wellbeing. Transformation has been driven by consumers’ purchasing power, greater work-life balance, corporate social responsibility, and investments in conditions that support happiness, uphold human rights, equality, work- life balance, wellbeing, peace, social order, safety, sustainability, and a healthier relationship with nature and earth’s ecosystems, aimed at enhancing human life satisfaction. Today, let's give to celebrate our ability to make a positive impact on the world! Your Money. Your Way. Your Impact. There are so many amazing ways you can give back and share in that happiness. If you’re looking for ideas, we have 10 great ones on our website!: https://lnkd.in/ek-bibyY  #HumanGoals #SDGs #Wellbeing #MentalHealth #WomenEmpowerment #YouthEmpowerment #EconomicDevelopment #EconomicGrowth #Environment #Sustainability #YourImpactYourWay #TheCaresOrganization The Cares Organization

Hi, I'm Julie Smith, Dow Corporate Facilities Leader and a new member of the Midland Area Wellbeing Coalition. A quote that resonates with me is by Lou Holtz: "Ability is what you are capable of doing, Motivation determines what you do, Attitude is how well you do it." The reason I find this quote so compelling is it speaks to three important characteristics for everyday life. We all have a certain level of ability in whatever path we choose. We can have a TON of ability, but without motivation the ability goes to waste. When we find our motivation to apply our abilities it still means very little if your attitude isn't in the right place. You can be highly skilled and motivated, but if your attitude is wrong it impacts you and everyone around you. Conversely, you may not be the most skilled, but have the motivation to try and the best attitude to succeed, those are the folks you want around you! This quote supports my wellbeing in that I believe our attitude plays such an important role in everything we do. So, how will you apply these key characteristics in your life? This has been brought to you by the Midland Area Wellbeing Coalition's Quotes to Live By Series. Make everyday count! 🧡💚 #quotestoliveby #midlandareawellbeing #midlandareawellbeingcoalition #wellbeing
