Building a Mindset of Mental Fitness in Your Workforce


Published: May 20, 2024

Hear leaders from Cisco, REI, and Kaiser Permanente discuss how prioritizing mental fitness can contribute to a healthier, more engaged workforce while reducing health care costs. Learn ways to normalize daily care for mental wellness, maximize available wellness offerings, and more.

Key takeaways

  • What mental fitness is: Mental fitness is a combination of activities, habits, and attitudes that contribute to overall emotional health and wellness. Just like physical fitness requires regular activity to stay fit and prevent health risks, mental fitness keeps your emotions and mental state healthy.
  • Practical ideas of how leaders can incorporate mental fitness into their workplace:
    • Lead by example by modeling mentally fit behaviors
    • Promote work-life harmony by setting healthy boundaries and expectations
    • Encourage and celebrate joy at work
  • Spread awareness of existing resources and tools
    • Tap into Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) or Business Resource Groups (BRGs) to share resources with members.
    • Encourage managers to share relevant resources with employees during one-on-one check-ins.
    • Place information about resources in highly visible areas, like in breakrooms.
