Corporate Wellness

Hong Kong’s most comprehensive series of corporate wellness programmes.

Today’s leaders and employees face greater challenges than ever before: higher levels of stress, longer workdays, constant multi-tasking, sedentary lifestyles, poor diets, weakened immunity and more. These challenges are taking a toll on employees’ health and productivity and businesses’ bottom line and workplace culture.

It’s proven: when you give employees the knowledge and tools to live well, you give them the drive and ability to work well. With optimal health and happiness they bring their best selves to work: Appreciated. Engaged. Focussed. Committed.

Trusted by global and local organisations, IMI’s Corporate Wellness Series is a win-win for everyone. Drawing on the latest research and our own thirty years’ clinical expertise, the comprehensive series is led by IMI’s practitioners who are skilled at bolstering immunity, resilience and wellbeing in the workplace.

At IMI, we treat unhealthy and unhappy professionals every single day. We address the physical, mental and emotional health issues that may be impacting their ability to perform at work and home. And we work with them to restore their good health and sustain their long-term wellbeing.

Critical to the success of an organization, mindfulness cultivates presence, productivity and resilience in times of stress. Discover how mindful leaders can boost their ability to engage and inspire their teams, and mindful leaders can strengthen their resilience.

 

Stress has become a huge challenge for leaders and employees. While some stress is natural, prolonged stress can cause chronic and severe illness. Learn about the different phases of stress, the long-term risks, and impactful ways to support the body and mind.

 

In the workplace, sleep deprivation can lead to poor communication, reduced performance and greater risk-taking. Discover sleep strategies to support workplace performance, and strengthen body, mind and emotions.

Long periods of sitting increase the risk of heart disease, diabetes, obesity, chronic back pain and osteo-related diseases. Learn the importance of movement at work and tips to support posture, energy levels, health, and performance.

 
  • Gut & Brain

Brain health is impacted by what goes on inside the gut, researchers advise. Poor gut health has been linked to headaches, poor concentration, chronic fatigue, low moods and more. Learn how to repair the gut and restore the body’s balance through optimal diet and nutrition.

Supermen and Superwomen face unique challenges and the risks to their health cannot be ignored. Discover the link between wellness and workplace success, and strategies to ensure Superheroes stay the course.

  • Stress Resilience at Work

This seminar will look at the new neuroscience of stress resilience and mindfulness, and specifically how they apply to organizational life, leadership and communication. The seminar will include an overview of most common stress triggers from a neurological perspective (based on David Rock’s SCARF model). Attendees will emerge with a deeper understanding how to develop their own stress resilience, and help their colleagues and teams do the same.

  • Leading Teams for Performance and Impact

This seminar explores the challenges of structuring and leading teams and meetings. Many teams are under-designed and under-led, with complex dynamics around membership, time management, and authority. This seminar addresses these challenges and offers practical interventions, incorporating insights from organizational psychology and group relations theory. Attendees will emerge with actionable plans for designing and enabling better teams and meetings, as well as fostering a healthier workplace culture.

  • Ethnicity and Gender in Leadership

This seminar will explore the roles of ethnicity and gender in leadership and leadership development. Several lenses will be introduced, including implicit leadership theory, Sue & Sue’s racial/cultural identity development models, and unconscious bias. Attendees will emerge with a deeper understanding of both agent and target group identity in the workplace, and a development plan for overcoming leadership biases and preferences.

Tailored to your needs, our programmes are available in engaging, high-impact formats including in-person and online presentations, workshops, as well as half- and full-day retreats. Our programmes are uniquely led by industry-renowned doctors, wellness practitioners and executive coaches.

    “Dr. Perch came to our office to give our female lawyers a talk on wellness. Dr. Perch knows exactly the various challenges and issues professional women face. Her talk prompted us to think about the little things we are doing on a daily basis that could be improved or avoided, and more importantly, raised the awareness among us. Her tips and suggestions are very practical so it’s easy to make improvements both in the office and at home.”
