The next economic era demands new ways of working that harness human potential:

• Companies and governments will be highly motivated to reverse the current trend of an unwell workforce.
• Wellness at work is a movement that will gain momentum across the world in the coming five to 10 years.
• Workplace wellness programs — as we know them today — will disappear.
• Individuals will take more responsibility for their own wellness in the context of work.
• Companies must adopt a culture of wellness as the default, not the exception, if they want to attract and retain good people.
• Companies will recognize that doing right by employees and the community is good business.
• Governments will become more aggressive about mandating wellness, including in the workplace.
• The healthiest workplaces will be a destination where people go to improve their own wellness.
