Let’s face it: meetings can be lame — especially early morning ones that go on for way too long.

If you can’t explain what your meeting is about in 20 seconds or less, you probably need to rethink why it’s needed in the first place. By only calling relevant meetings with clear agenda topics, you’ll waste less of everyone’s time.

Meetings can be time suckers or time savers, depending on how each one is run. With a bit of tweaking, though, meetings can still be productive and fun.

Keeping your employees engaged in overall wellness during the year is tough, but during the holidays it can seem nearly impossible.

With all the vacations and holiday parties, it’s sometimes difficult to get the message of health out loud and clear.

A study by Integrated Benefits Institute shows poor health costs employers nearly $880 billion in health care benefits for employees and dependents. That means decreased productivity and profitability for companies.

It’s easy to forget about health with holiday season madness, but there are ways to keep wellness at the forefront of employees’ minds so they go into the new year happy and healthy.

Help your employees move into the holiday season with a healthy mindset with these seven tips:

Now that the holidays are here, a flurry of festivities has arrived as well — holiday parties, big family gatherings, and fancy dinners.

The list is endless.

Making healthy choices among all the temptations can be tricky. Don’t let the holidays derail your normally good choices and healthy habits. It’s hard to enjoy the holidays if you’re fighting off a cold or carrying around extra weight that’s slowing you down.

Staying healthy during the holidays doesn’t have to be hard. You just have to have a plan in place to make smart decisions for when that dessert plate does arrive.

To help keep you on track, we’ve compiled 15 healthy holiday tips below:

It may be cold outside, but that doesn’t mean you have to quit enjoying the great outdoors — or exercise in general.

There’s no need to hibernate like a bear. If you do, you’ll end up packing on the pounds. And, you’ll be grouchy by the time spring rolls around due to weight gain and lethargy.

Plus, research shows exercise reduces inflammation while also improving mood and stress levels. Try as you might, you can’t argue with science that staying in bed instead of exercising is better for your health.
