"When it came to wellness in our organization, our biggest challenges were the exposure hours of team members and answering emails after working hours. After working with Kalila, our organization is now more open to discussions and sharing of our work-life balance successes and challenges. She also helped team members set clear boundaries after working hours. Kalila helped us to reinforce the requirements for balance in work and life, and supported us in adopting strategies to maintain lower stress levels. What we found most valuable about Kalila’s Corporate Wellness events has been learning how to effectively balance work and life – the interactive sharing of information and timely reminders articulated have been invaluable. If your organization is considering Kalila’s services for corporate wellness, we recommend coordinating sessions for your team as the benefits derived are life-enhancing."
