The Organizational Care Gap: New Research, Real Strategies

February 11, 2026 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM (CST)

Description

Only 1 in 4 employees strongly agree their organization cares about their well-being—a number that decreased from the past year. And yet, the data is clear: when employees feel genuinely cared for, everything improves—from employee engagement with work and retention to well-being and life satisfaction.  In this webinar, you’ll get new insights into data from the Workplace and Employee Survey conducted by WebMD’s Center for Research, alongside client stories and tactical insights that show how employers are taking action to move the needle on care. You’ll walk away with a clear understanding of the six elements employees say matter most—and how you can bring them to life through leadership, communication and culture. 

Learning Objectives: 

After attending this webinar, participants will be able to: 

  • Understand current trends around organizational care and what it means for retention, burnout and performance.   
  • Identify six key elements that make employees feel genuinely cared for.   
  • Explore real-world examples from organizations who are doing great work to foster care.
