HUMAN WELL-BEING IS KEY TO A SUSTAINABLE FUTURE

The well-being potential of every one of us depends on the environment in which we live and systems in which we operate.  And the success of every organization depends on creating opportunities for individuals to thrive and fulfill their potential.

At SHINE, our scientists conduct research with the aim of shining a light on the dynamic connections that exist between individuals, organizations, workplaces and communities and their impact on our well-being.  Because well-being in one setting influences well-being in all settings.

SHINE Spotlight:
Factory Workers on Work and Well-being

Employees at an apparel factory in Mexico share about their experience with the SHINE
Well-being Survey and the social impacts of SHINE’s research within their workplace.

Featured SHINE Supporter: Kohler Co.

“The insights we gain from the SHINE Well-being Survey are instrumental in developing the updated well-being pillars our organization will focus on going forward, which include Meaning and Purpose, Physical, Mental/Emotional, and Financial Health.  We work closely with the SHINE team at Harvard to identify areas of relative strength, by location and associate group. This work helps us better understand the practices leading to our results, which are being shared across our organization. The impact these programs will have on the overall well-being of our associates is promising, as we continue to evolve our culture and focus on well-being at Kohler.”
