What if the metric that matters most isn’t risk reduced but life amplified? Dr. Seth Serxner—public‑health scientist, Fortune‑100 chief health officer, and author of The Wellbeing Effect—takes the main stage to re‑write the wellness playbook. Moving seamlessly between “Seth the Science Guy, the Business Guy, and the Regular Guy,” he blends cutting‑edge data with a raw personal story of a near‑fatal ski accident that forced him to test and practice his own research in real time. Audiences witness how purpose, hope, and micro‑practices out‑perform willpower, how culture and community—not programs—drives outcomes, and why collective wellbeing is critical to sustainable wellbeing. Expect real life examples, interactive polls, and a closing challenge that has attendees texting their first micro‑win before they leave their seats.
Workshops – Partial or all day facilitated event
Ex. Design Your 90‑Day Wellbeing Blueprint: An ASM Behavior‑Change Lab
This isn’t a lecture; it’s a design sprint for your health and your organization’s health. Guided by Seth’s Awareness–Skill–Maintenance (ASM) model and Behavior‑Change Pyramid, participants tear down a real wellbeing goal and rebuild it as a 90‑day micro‑practice campaign. Interactive modules—purpose sprints, habit‑stacking charrettes, contingency “risk maps”—turn theory into tactile action. Peer critiques add accountability, and each team leaves with a Wellbeing Canvas, metrics dashboard, and a calendar invite for a 30‑day checkpoint. The session ends with 15‑second video pledges that hit inboxes on day 90 as a built‑in nudge. Perfect for HR strategists, clinician leaders, and frontline managers who need change that sticks.
Fireside Chat
Ex. Beyond ROI: Personal & Collective Wellbeing — A Candid Conversation with Dr. Seth Serxner
Pull up a chair and drop the script. In this intimate fireside setting, Seth unpacks the questions leaders whisper about but seldom ask on stage. How do you cast a “leadership shadow” that multiplies energy instead of draining it? Where’s the line between data discipline and decision paralysis? What does humility look like when you carry P&L responsibility? Using the audience’s live Slido™ feed, the moderator guides a free‑flowing dialogue through three lenses: science (evidence for hope, humor, and awe), business (turning culture into EBITDA), and humanity (Seth’s own recovery journey). Listeners leave with actionable language to unlock budgets, stories that melt resistance, and the courage to stop “moving other people’s sticks.”
