Keys to a Healthier, More Productive Organization or Community

There’s little question that your most important asset – the essence of your organization whether it be a private for-profit company or a public non-profit – is your people. Their performance and effectiveness drive your organization’s success and your strategy for their health and productivity has become a core issue. You want your costs in this area -- your investments -- to benefit the organizational bottom line, but you also want to do right by your people and improve their lives. 

Further, you expect the benefits of these investments -- when successful -- to extend to your community. All of the stakeholders with which your people are or become linked -- their community organizations, places of worship, their doctors and hospitals, even government – stand to gain. Their own missions and objectives become more achievable as your people enjoy better health.

These shared interests can in fact advance your own organizational strategy. The more each of these stakeholder groups recognizes the interests it shares in your success, the more likely its interface with your organization will be marked by the cooperation and collaboration needed for your strategy to succeed.

So, a top priority is to advance the health and productivity of your people to improve your organization and/or your community. How do you best do this?

Read about our recent work in the News or in these Case Studies:

  • Building on employer health and productivity "successes" to improve the sustainability of health care reform
  • Using health & productivity evidence to drive health care benefit design
  • Combining professional (clinical) & employer resources (EAPs) to measure and manage workplace depression
  • Quantifying the direct & indirect costs of targeted diseases
  • Shaping workplace health and productivity initiatives to come to grips with relationship breakup

Each could serve as a presentation, symposium or workshop topic. For more details, please contact us.

What to Do

As you survey your landscape, are there silos of data with untapped potential?  A more fully integrated database and proven analytic techniques could better convert these data into actionable information. 

Maybe your organization’s health benefits design consists mostly of cost sharing increases that have proven ineffective.  An evidence-driven approach that focuses on long-term priorities could improve its sustainability. 

Perhaps there are breaches in the care for certain health conditions that are affecting workforce performance.  Better teamwork between your internal employee assistance program and local providers could reduce the burden of these conditions. 

Or, maybe other stakeholder groups just do not see how they could benefit from your success in improving your people’s health and productivity. Their actual or perceived barriers to long-term investment need to be addressed.

What We Offer

The Harris Allen Group can help you plot your course as you formulate and take steps like these and strive to gauge and improve their effectiveness. 

We specialize in scientific approaches that measure health and productivity, and develop, analyze, and report on custom integrated databases that are as comprehensive as your organizational context and resources allow to guide the decisions you need to make.

We also develop and rollout of strategies and programs to manage health and productivity.  We can collaborate with you and your vendors to optimize existing programs.   OR, we can work from the ground up to design and roll out interventions for targeted populations.

We can also work with you to craft and implement a broader vision of health and productivity that encompasses shared interests with other key stakeholder groups in your community. To promote the synergies needed to achieve sustainable change, we can help you to take stock of their current and future position relative to long-term investment and encourage their collaboration and cooperation with this investment.
