HR, Communications and Wellness Leaders to Share Best Practices to Achieving Total Workplace Wellness and a Culture of Engagement

CHICAGO, JULY 11, 2022 — Ragan Communication’s Workplace Wellness announces an important knowledge sharing and networking event that takes a deep dive into how organizations can achieve an engaged, healthy, and productive workforce: Workplace Wellness Conference, set to take place at the Hyatt Regency Chicago, August 16-17.

This is a critical time for employers as it relates to hiring and retention, positive culture, employee engagement, and forward-thinking strategies that bring success to organizations. Workplace wellness benefits play a crucial role.

Ragan has assembled a panel of HR and wellness professionals who will shed light on best practices inside their organizations, what’s working and what isn’t, and how together we can work to crack the code on total employee wellbeing.”

Included among the speakers are Gina Cherwin, Chief People Officer, MikeWorldWide (MWW); Sheila Collins, Lead Communications Advisor, Lockheed Martin Rotary and Missions Systems (RMS); Lacey Willard, Vice President, Global Safety & Wellbeing, CBRE; Dr. Sheila Dowd, Medical Director, Center for Clinical Wellness, Rush University Medical Center; Misty Gaither, Senior Director & Global Head of Diversity, Inclusion and Belonging, Indeed; and many more.

Hundreds of attendees will partake in peer-to-peer discussions and presentations that focus on:
