Leadership Lesson – February 2024: Share the Love of Wellness With Your Teams

Words of advice from leaders on the front lines.
This month’s leadership lesson is from Ingris Garcia, CDCES, CPHQ, CDN, RDN, a quality improvement specialist for Alliant Health Solutions.

My work and personal interests revolve around encouraging others to pursue their health and wellness goals by helping them plan, solve problems, and utilize resources.

As a leadership activity, I suggest incorporating work-life balance and self-care in your daily routine and sharing it with your immediate work community.

Self-care is an expression of self-love, so focus on extending it to your work life. To promote heart health, create a team care calendar with simple wellness activities that your team can do together. You can even turn it into a team care challenge with some friendly competition to motivate everyone. Spread the love of community wellness during this month of love, friendship, compassion and heart health.
