What’s new: This week, Aon published its 2022-2023 Global Wellbeing Survey, which found that improving employee wellbeing factors can enhance company performance by at least 11 percent and up to 55 percent.
Wellbeing is a key component of an organization’s overall strategy to build a more resilient workforce that will drive better outcomes for colleagues, clients and communities:
- According to Rachel Fellowes, chief wellbeing officer at Aon:
- “It’s important to look at the direct link between employee wellbeing and business performance – and the impact that healthy, resilient employees can have. Employees bring their best selves to work when wellbeing, individual resilience and human sustainability are prioritized by both employees and employers.”
- “To be effective in today’s environment, wellbeing needs to be an adaptable, data-informed people and performance strategy where tools, programs and resources align to culture and employee needs.”

- Michael Burke, CEO of Human Capital Solutions at Aon, added, “What is also clear is that there are a new set of skills rising to prominence. As digital becomes a core foundation to all business models – not a function or team of technologists – companies have shifted their mindset on skills.”
- In episode 46 of Aon’s podcast, “On Aon,” host and Senior Vice President, Chief Broking Officer and National Leader of Growth and Client Engagement for Health Solutions at Aon, Joey Raheb, joined Head of Advisory Specialty Practice for EMEA Health Solutions at Aon, Dr. Avneet Kaur, for a conversation about Aon’s 2022 Global DE&I Survey. They discussed what led Aon to launch its 2022 Global DE&I survey and how it was conducted globally, why employee benefits need to change to accommodate the diverse needs of employees and why DE&I needs the involvement of everyone in order to be most effective within an organization.
