Ep067 - Are you ready for your workplace health assessment program? with Josh Lambert, Director Pinnacle Health Group

The old adage “what you can measure, you can manage” certainly rings true when it comes to workplace wellbeing - especially right now.

Clearly, the last two years have thrown up their fair share of wellbeing challenges for all of us, and particularly workplaces.

On a positive note, the health and wellbeing of employees has risen to the top of the agenda for most organisations (finally and this has been powerful for recognition and awareness of employee wellbeing.

On the flipside, however, it has also proven an overwhelming time for many HR or health, safety and wellbeing leaders, as they juggle:

• Balancing health and wellbeing interventions for mental, physical, financial and social wellbeing pillars
• Justifying the wellbeing budget, with ROI and data measurement related to employee health
• Trying to “engage the disengaged” - and encourage high-risk employees towards awareness and healthy behavioural change
• The Great Resignation, with huge resources being spent in simply attracting or retaining great people

In this Podcast, we are excited to introduce Josh Lambert, Director of Pinnacle Health Group. 

Josh is a wellbeing entrepreneur, physiotherapist, speaker, and co-owner of Pinnacle Health Group. He is a workplace wellbeing leader and advocate, and along with hosting regular master classes and events and being featured on wellbeing panels and published for wellbeing articles in publications such as Men's Fitness Magazine and the AFR.

Josh was part of the challenging journey of shaping Australia's first corporate wellness centre at ANZ Bank in 2010, and rapidly growing employee wellbeing programs to support workplaces including Westpac, AFL, Deloitte, AGL and EY.

Josh's current role involves consulting many of Australia's largest workplaces on their employee wellbeing strategy - which includes mapping out an annual calendar of health initiatives delivered by the PHG team.

Josh's belief is that workplaces and organisations are, not only responsible for the wellbeing of their own employees, but for inspiring healthy change in teams, families, communities and society as a whole.
