Description
Our guest for this episode is Bob Merberg, employee wellness manager at Paychex. Bob Merberg is a contemplative guy. His approach toward Paychex’s health and wellness program combines a balanced review of the current literature, a determination to meet the needs of Paychex’s 12,500 employees, and a commitment to satisfy the organization’s goals. Bob’s viewpoints diverge from what’s au courant in employee wellness, but that’s due to the data telling him something different from many of the latest program trends. This divergence is part of what makes Bob one of the leaders in the field. Join us as we explore with Bob the challenges of searching for what works in employee wellness.
