Keeping Your Team Healthy and In Good Shape with Corporate Cooking Classes
It is easy to send simple messages about health and fitness and their importance in our lives.
Throw up a poster with a few facts and a healthy-looking role model and you have sent your message, right? Sure, the message was received.
But what are the chances that anything will be done with that message?
Slim to none.
Propaganda might be effective in generating a short-term effect, though it is just as likely to accomplish nothing at all.
However, the goal of your wellness program isn’t to get people motivated in the short-term, it is to realize results in the long term.
Posters aren’t going to do that. Neither are simple incentives.
Getting the chance to win a reward might spur someone to start their road to better health but it won’t suffice to prevent them from straying off the path.
To keep your employees going, you need to offer them education.
In general, most wellness programs offer little in terms of education.
When they do, they tend to focus more on exercise than eating.
And when they do focus on eating, they tend to cover things like counting calories and balancing their meals.
What they neglect to cover are the skills that allow your employees to prepare these meals.
To address this deficit, opt to enrol your employees in a corporate cooking class series.
Once a month, or even once per quarter, take part in a workday to attend a class at a kitchen studio.
These corporate classes can focus on cooking methods that are healthier such as not relying as much on oil and frying as well as healthier takes on favorite recipes and learning how to work with more diverse ingredients.
Many kitchen studios work with nutritionists and can even develop possible meal plans for your employees to use at home.
This can help employees go further than just eating healthier by reducing their stress over shopping and mealtime, and can even help them free up more time to spend with family.
If you are looking for a studio to partner with, you have found the right partner to help you.
