How To Build a Thriving Culture at Work: What's Science Got To Do With It?
1.
2. Learning & Discomfort
“The truth is that our finest moments are most likely to
occur when we are feeling deeply uncomfortable…
For it is only in such moments, propelled by our
discomfort, that we are likely to step out of our ruts
and start searching for different ways or truer
answers.”
M. Scott Peck
8. 17th Century Science
• Mechanistic
• Reductionist
• Dualistic
• Patriarchal
whole = the sum of its parts
analysis = to break down
matter & spirit separate
aggression, competition and control
9. 17th Century Science
The Purpose of Science:
“to torture nature’s secrets from her so
she can be forced out of her natural
state and squeezed and molded.”
~ Sir Francis Bacon
Patriarchy
10. 17th Century Science
" Man is more courageous, pugnacious,
and energetic than woman,
and has more inventive genius."
Patriarchy
~ Charles Darwin
12. 17th Century Science: Organizations
• “Scientific Management:” Control the
Machine
―Human nature to “goof off”
―Job tasks broken down to component parts
―Pay for production
―Micro-managing
13. Patriarchy Still Alive & Well in Organizations
• Gender Biases
• Success = Masculine Traits:
―Money
―Power
14. “Stuck”- The Old Paradigm
Worldview — Mechanistic
Science — Reductionist
(Whole = sum of its parts)
Culture — Control oriented
(hierarchy, patriarchal)
Health — Biomedical
(fix the machine)
Traditional Approaches to Change
Extrinsic (controlled) Motivation
Outdated Outdated
15. “Stuck”- Worksite Wellness
• Reduce and analyze
• Measure and quantify
• Scare, cajole, pressure, persuade
• Behavior modification
• “Get” people to change
Fear

}Control
17. Roots of the Biomedical Model
“I consider the body as a machine ...my
thought...compares a sick man and an
ill-made clock with my idea of healthy
man and a well-made clock "
~Renes Descartes
18. " There is nothing included in the
concept of the body that belongs to
the mind; and nothing in that of the
mind that belongs to the body "
~ Renes Descartes
Roots of the Biomedical Model
19. Traditional Worksite Wellness
“I believe you have to address the things that matter most
– and those core programs will be pretty much the same
from worksite to worksite. These include physical
activity, proper nutrition and preventive screening…”
Aaron Hardy, The Power Of Incentive Campaigns, WELCOA Absolute Advantage, 2008
20. Traditional Worksite Wellness
• Health Risk Assessments
• Biometric Screens
• Weight Loss / Nutrition
• Exercise
• Smoking Cessation
• Stress Management
22. Why We Do What We Do
Autonomy & Authenticity:
• Actions come from true sense
of self
Control & Alienation:
• Actions come from being pressured
• Acting without sense of personal
endorsement
• Behavior isn’t expression of self
Source: Deci, E. (1995). Why We Do What We Do: Understanding Self-Motivation
23. Extrinsic Motivation
• Does not produce long-term behavior change
• Diminishes performance
• Diminishes creativity
• Fosters short-term thinking
• Encourages cheating, lying, shortcuts, etc.
• Becomes habit forming
• Reduces or extinguishes intrinsic motivation

Top 13 Reasons Not To
Use Incentives

26. Trapped 17th-20th Century
“Words are the most
powerful drug used by mankind”
• How do we manage human resources?
• How can we “maximize” human capital?
• What’s best way to “drive” participation?
• How do we “get people” to change?
Rudyard Kipling
28. Participation & Engagement
• Participation - the act of taking part in something
• Engagement - how employees feel about their work
Engaged employees are committed to and excited about
their work and willing to go the extra mile to make a
difference
29. • Incentives increase participation
• Claim improved engagement
Bribing employees to participate may increase the numbers who do.
But it says nothing about how they feel about their work.
Participation, Engagement and Incentives
30. The Penn State Fiasco (2013)
Fiasco
“a thing that is a complete
failure,
especially in a ludicrous or
humiliating way.”
32. The “Safeway Amendment”
“Safeway figured out how to incentivize
people to take better care of themselves, and
they have flat-lined their health care costs for
200,000 employees in the last four years.”
The Rhetoric
Sen. Thomas R. Carper, Democrat, Delaware, Senate Finance Committee, September, 2009
33. “Safeway designed such a plan in 2005 and
has made continuous improvement each
year. The results have been remarkable, our
health care costs for four years have been
held constant.”
The Rhetoric
Steven A Burd, Safeway CEO, Wall Street Journal, June 12, 2009
The “Safeway Amendment”
34. The “Safeway Amendment”
“You know, there’s a guy who has
become pretty famous lately, and he’s
the CEO of Safeway… Safeway’s health-
care costs have gone down. Why can’t
we adopt that on a national scale.”
The Rhetoric
Sen. John McCain, Republican, Arizona, Town Hall Meeting, August, 2009
35. The “Safeway Amendment”
“It’s a program that has helped Safeway cut
health-care spending by 13 percent and workers
save over 20 percent on their premiums... And
we’re open to help employers adopt and expand
programs like these.”
The Rhetoric
President Barack Obama – June – American Medical Association speech
36. David S. Hilzenrath, Washington Post
“Misleading claims about Safeway wellness incentives
shape health-care bill”
Washington Post: Sunday, January 17, 2010
37. The “Safeway Fiasco”
The Reality
• Costs declined by 12.5 % in 2006
• Program was not implemented until 2009
—(only 28,000 out of 200,000 employees)
• 1st year of the program costs rose steeply

39. The “Safeway Amendment”
The Reality
“Although it may seem obvious that charging higher premiums for smoking
(body mass index, cholesterol, or blood pressure) would encourage people
to modify their habits to lower their premiums, evidence that differential
premiums change health-related behavior is scant. Indeed, we’re unaware
of any insurance data that convincingly demonstrate such effects.”
Volpp, et. Al, Redesigning Employee Health Incentives, NEJM 2011;365:388-390
40. The “Safeway Amendment”
The Reality
“We also have a pretty good idea of what doesn’t work, and
heading the list are strategies that tie individual employees’ share
of health insurance premiums to health-related behaviors and/or
meeting benchmarks.”
Workplace wellness regulations: First do no harm. The Prevention Institute, The Greenlining Institute, 2013
41. WELLNESS OR ELSE !
By 2016 the % of employers who will punish
employees for not participating in their workplace
wellness program is expected to triple.
• Now - 22%
• End of 2013 - 36%
• By 2016 – 61%

42. WELLNESS OR ELSE !
Health professionals of all persuasions
Punishing employees who don’t comply:
• Something you believe in?
• What you went into your field to do?
• Something that will improve their “wellness”?
Or have we really lost our way?
43. WELLNESS OR ELSE !
CEO’s, managers, HR, benefits professionals
Punishing employees who don’t comply:
• Likely to improve engagement?
• Help employees want to bring their best selves to work each day?
• Enhance employee “wellness”?
Or have we really lost our way?
44. The “New” Sciences
• Quantum Physics
• Chaos and Complexity
• Psychoneuroimmunology
• Neuroscience
Getting “Unstuck”
45. Quantum Physics
• Key Learning:
- Universe bears little resemblance to a machine
- Vast interconnected living web
- Parts exist as both matter and energy at the same time
- Universe made up of relationship not things
- Parts are difficult to quantify without knowing their
relationship to each other and the whole
- Whole can be misunderstood by focusing on the parts
46. Complex Systems: Nonlinear Causality
• Small changes in a variable can produce huge outcomes
• Everything effects everything
• “The Butterfly Effect”
Chaos & Complexity

47. Complex Systems: Nonlinear Causality
• Cannot know all initial conditions exactly
• Small errors grow exponentially over time
• Limits ability to predict the future
• Most living systems are complex
• Includes human behavior

52. “Unstuck”- The New Paradigm
Worldview — Organic-Living
Science — Holistic
(Whole > sum of its parts)
Culture — Relationship-oriented
(equalitarian)
Health — Bio-psycho-social-spiritual
(holistic, ecological)
Re-Thinking Approaches to Change
Intrinsic (autonomous) Motivation
53. Organizational Wellbeing
• Organizational Health Defined:
”An organization is healthy when it is whole, consistent, and
complete, that is, when its management, operations, strategy and
culture fit together and make sense.”
―Minimal Politics
―Minimal Confusion
―High Morale
―High Productivity
―Low Turnover

60. TP #5: Wire the House
• Rethinking Change - 2 Types of Challenges:
Technical
Adaptive
Ronald A. Heifetz & Donald L. Laurie (December 2001). The Work of Leadership. Harvard Business Review, p. 131-141
61. TP #6: Decorate the House
• Are Your Programs…
―Addressing the issues that have the greatest
impact on employee well-being?
―Addressing the issues that have the greatest
impact on organizational health?
―Promoting engagement? …or Inhibiting it?
―Evidence and experience based?
62. TP #7: Maintain the House
• Continuous Quality Improvement
―Meaningful Evaluation
―Engagement > Participation
―Course Corrections
64. Our Recommendations
1) Read outside of your profession:
• Not just trade journals and vendor research
• PNI, quantum physics, chaos and complexity, neuroscience,
motivation
• Leadership and “culture” – not “wellness” culture but real
organizational culture.
• Research design and statistics
65. Our Recommendations
2) Make sure what you are doing is evidence based:
• Can’t do that effectively without spending considerable time doing
#1.
• Lack of evidence of efficacy = proceed with great caution.
• Evidence of lack of efficacy = don’t proceed at all.
66. Our Recommendations
3) Please keep this in mind:
The only way to achieve the goal of having employees act
like creative, thinking, responsible, autonomous adults is to
treat them as if that is exactly what they are.
