Case Study: Humana: Finding our Authentic Selves through Footwear

Skylar Griessel, Founder & Co-chair of Mindful Mentors Group at Humana, at the 2022 Mindful Leader Summit

An 8-week mindfulness pilot turned into a sanctuary for employees as they learned to become their authentic selves using an unusual allegory: shoes. After the pandemic and all the changes that came with it, the need for compassion and mindfulness in the workplace was obvious. A small group of volunteers set out to prove how honest conversations and personal growth can lead to corporate success. Learn how mindfulness can help reduce burnout and increase employee achievement in both short and long-term endeavors. You will never look at your shoes the same way again.
