Worksite Wellness Value of Investment

As the new breed of worksite wellness programs continue to better integrate within company cultures their value to the bottom-line is so much more than the classic ROI expectations.  Senior and middle managers of these programs have added VOI or value of investment to their arsenal of evaluation tools.  ROI would be included in a VOI dashboard, but the VOI dashboard goes way beyond just equating dollars invested to the return on investment.  VOI converts the benefits of being “well” into benefits that move companies from “good to great”, and individuals to “being the best they can be”.  At MD Anderson, tailored programs for diabetics translate into individuals that have the energy to be the best they can be at work, and still have the energy to have a life after work.  VOI looks way beyond the money and into the soul or cultural variables that make a company great.  Has your company moved beyond ROI?  Why not?
