Microdegree 2 : Workplace Wellness |
Every day, more than 3 billion people around the world go to work. In a lifetime, the average person will spend at least 90,000 hours working. Employees are every company’s greatest asset and they need to be healthy and secure in order to be motivated, engaged, and productive at work. The global workplace wellness market is estimated by the Global Wellness Institute to be at $48.5 billion in 2020. Employers around the world are beginning to adopt a more holistic approach that encompasses company culture, hierarchy, leadership style, workflow, built environment, to improve morale, retention, and recruitment; and increase productivity and competitiveness. The goal of the Workplace Wellness Microdegree is to develop students into extraordinary human resources. Specifically, the goals are to teach students how to become resilient to stress, improve students’ emotional intelligence and ability to perform at a peak level in the business world, and be able to teach others to experience those same modalities. Human resources management courses with a unique focal point on holistic well-being methods give students the opportunity to learn the practices and principles to maximize performance, actualize potential, and enhance workforce energy to become more mindful and sustainable business leaders of the future. |
