\"UpsetReactive vs proactive … if I were to ask this audience which is better, the response would be 100% = proactive. It’s SUCH an obvious answer that it seems like a rhetorical question. <\/span><\/p>\n

But proactive approaches are vastly under-utilized, so … where’s the disconnect??<\/span><\/p>\n

The disconnect is your communication with them. <\/span><\/p>\n

You have to see and communicate (precisely) how the reactive, rear-view mirror approach to wellbeing programs makes sense. They need to see how to overcome the causes of their uncertainty. <\/span><\/p>\n

Otherwise, the right answer (from their perspective) is the standard reactive approach. And for good reason, as I detail in this article. <\/span><\/p>\n

Listen, if you really want to move the needle for wellbeing, you must identify <\/span>
\n* risk tolerance in your relationships<\/span>
\n* sources of their uncertainty<\/span>
\n* and how to minimize that uncertainty. <\/span><\/p>\n

Otherwise, your clients will do exactly what is in their best interest as they understand it — and the reason they will do that is because you didn’t adequately show them how to optimize their decision matrix.<\/span><\/p>\n

I published this article in the J of C&B to describe: <\/span>
\n1) HOW reactive approaches actually make sense for companies<\/span>
\n2) to understand WHY they choose these strategies<\/span>
\n3) how to overcome the barriers. <\/span><\/p>\n
