Our Workplace Wellness is Award-Worthy

Did you know we hold meetings while walking and when we’re working at our desks, we might be standing instead of sitting? It’s all part of our commitment to keeping The Center team healthy. That commitment has led to a 3rd healthy workplace award in less than a year. This time, we’re being recognized in Corp! Magazine’s online publication as one of Michigan’s Best and Brightest in Wellness. For Partner and Financial Advisor Sandy Adams, keeping our constant focus on health is one thing that makes The Center a great place to work.

For me, staying healthy and active gives me the energy and positive attitude to best serve my team and our clients. The Center is committed to helping our team stay healthy by providing us with education on health and wellness, providing equipment like standing desks and balance balls for alternative seating, and by encouraging standing or walking meetings.”

The Best and Brightest in Wellness awards will be handed out at a gala on October 2nd. The selection was based on an assessment by the wellness systems firm Wellco. We won this award based on criteria like wellness policies, healthy work environment, senior leadership support of health initiatives, and motivation.

Earlier this year we won a Healthy Workplace Award from the Governor’s Council on Physical Fitness, Health and Sports. And last December The Center was recognized as one of Michigan’s Healthiest Employers by Priority Health, Crain’s Detroit Business and MiBiz. In 2007, we launched an initiative to shape up our office. Looks like we’re on the right track.
