HES Announces Employee Kindness Challenge

Good Nurtured promotes and enhances mental, emotional, and physical well-being by fostering kindness, civility, and graciousness in the workplace.

MIDLAND, Mich.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Health Enhancement Systems (HES), leading provider of workplace and member organizations wellness solutions, is proud to announce the launch of their latest well-being challenge, Good Nurtured.

“We are excited to introduce Good Nurtured as part of our ongoing commitment to employee well-being and positive organizational change,” notes Dean Witherspoon, CEO of HES. “Promoting kindness and civility at work, and anywhere people interact, should be an essential element of comprehensive well-being strategies.”

Good Nurtured encourages participants to build simple, easy-to-do rituals called Good Things into work and life. Good Things fall into 3 categories:

  • Good to Me — physical, emotional, and social self-care practices
  • Good to You — kindness, graciousness, and civility toward people you know
  • Good to All — goodwill toward people you don’t know.

Employees experience how small gestures result in significantly elevated well-being — based on shared values, grounded in courtesy and consideration.

“We’ve designed Good Nurtured to be a fun, engaging experience that promotes personal growth and connection among colleagues,” adds Rachel LaBerge, Good Nurtured program director. “Our goal is to empower individuals and organizations to embrace these values, then watch the ripple effect they have on the entire community.”
