Here’s the big not-so-secret secret: Employee well-being and fulfillment drive employee engagement. When your cup is full, you’re able to bring more energy, joy, and creativity to your work, not to mention the rest of your life.
Here’s the big kind-of-secret secret: Companies can (and should) actively participate in helping their people find fulfillment by creating space for them to have experiences.
Research shows that experiences make us happier, more fulfilled people. Our experiences help us shape our identities. They help us form stronger social connections. And they evoke fewer comparisons than material stuff. When we’re having a meaningful experience, we’re less likely to be chasing the Jones and more likely to be present, to be in our lives.
Unsurprisingly, deeper relationships, a strong sense of self, and fewer comparisons lead to greater wellbeing. Find out about the role of the employer in all this when you watch this video.

- How people leaders can use experiential rewards and incentives to help their people find greater fulfillment
- How people leaders can build a culture employees won’t want to leave
