ABOUT LIZA BAKER

Offering employee wellness programming has become non-negotiable. Organizational sustainability and impact begin with employee health—and as HR, you\'re supposed to fix this mess. But what\'s an HR manager to do when it\'s not their area of expertise? You\'ve tried all. the. things. and all. the. apps. with your team: weight loss challenges, smoking cessation challenges, fitness challenges, wellness passports, fitness classes, mindfulness apps. How are those all working out for you and your team? Illness, absenteeism, and presenteeism still plaguing your people, destroying your impact, and sinking your budget? Learn how to offer your people employee wellness programs that make their health journeys SIMPLE and SUSTAINABLE—with a minimum of time and energy invested on your part. I help HR in mission-driven organizations optimize the health + wellness of human resources so that they can:*Reduce absenteeism + presenteeism *Increase operational effectiveness + program impact *Maximize all resources in service of their mission *Remain sustainable. I do this by providing wellness programming for:*Leadership—so that they can lead by example (like no more eating al desko!) and become good stewards of their human resources.*Staff—to maximize retention, minimize turnover due to burnout, improve performance, and minimize healthcare costs, all of which result in better stewardship of administrative funding.*Other stakeholders—if your nonprofit seeks to improve the health of a specific population, health coaching provides a supportive service that can improve health outcomes in the short term and sustain eating and lifestyle changes in the long run, creating broader, deeper, and more lasting program impact. I spent almost 20 years in the nonprofit sector—church, academia, 501(c)(3); I understand the pressures—and the burnout as well. And while my programs can help anyone dealing with burnout, they focus primarily on those facing overwhelm in the social change sector. Want truly innovative employee wellness benefits and programming that will set you apart? I\'m currently offering virtual and in-person workshops and presentations on holistic health and wellness, stress reduction/resilience, energy investment (AKA time management), nutrition, food energetics, and meal planning through an Integrative Nutrition® lens to small (10–50 employees) mission-driven organizations.
