PROGRAM DETAILS

Friday morning presentation:

“Why” & “How” Wellness Works: What The Best Do Better
Speaker: David Hunnicutt, CEO & Managing Member of David Hunnicutt Int’l LLC

While many inherently buy-in to the idea of staying healthy and well, few people understand precisely why or how wellness works.  In this opening session, Dr. David Hunnicutt will immerse participants in the fascinating science behind what’s referred to as “The Theory of The Compression of Morbidity.”  Put forth by some of the nation’s leading scientists, this framework is the key to understanding “why” and “how” wellness works. As a result of better understanding this theory and framework, participants will have in their possession the knowledge of why and how wellness works—the key that unlocks the door of personal and organizational health improvement—especially in the context of family-owned business environments.

Having laid the foundation, David will then outline the key factors necessary for participants to get and stay healthy by choice—not by chance.  Zeroing in on the intriguing research behind building healthy habits, David will share the evidence-based secrets behind making the healthy choice the easy choice. At the completion of this session, participants will understand why some personal improvements work and others get derailed—and exactly what to do to make wellness work in their own lives.

Friday afternoon workshop:

SHINE! The New Science Of Igniting Organizational Performance And Fueling Individual Engagement in Family Owned Enterprises
Facilitators:

  • David Hunnicutt, CEO & Managing Member of David Hunnicutt Int’l LLC
  • Valerie Au, Worksite Wellness Program Manager at UHA Health Insurance
  • Erica Kolcz, Wellness Consultant/Account Executive at UHA Health Insurance

Thousands of new wellness and family business books are released each year. Tens of thousands of research articles are written.  Yet, perhaps the most important family business, worksite wellness and performance improvement practices–the ones that virtually guarantee engagement and ignite performance–are rarely, if ever, mentioned. In this hands-on, highly-interactive and engaging afternoon session, David Hunnicutt and his co-facilitators Valerie Au and Erica Kolcz will zero in on the most overlooked and neglected worksite wellness practices that guarantee engagement, improve health and ignite performance. All especially important  in a family owned enterprise.

Building on the material presented in the morning keynote, the facilitators will lead you through a roll-up-your-sleeves, practical experience which will help everyone in attendance better understand the art and science of creating an organizational wellness initiative designed for family-owned enterprises that brings out the best in all of your people, family members and non-family members too.

Brad and Ted are no strangers to family-owned business as this father and son team have been working together for over 25 years. In their plenary address Brad and Ted will cover key topics related to the psychology of wealth and healthy family businesses including:

  • The stereotypes of the wealthy and where they go wrong.
  • Three psychological constructs that explain why we tend to hate rich people.
  • Psychological factors linked to high income and net worth.
  • Money beliefs linked to lower income, lower net worth, and self-destructive behaviors.
  • Why we are wired to self-destruct around money.
  • How financial help can hurt and what we can do about it.
  • Why people resist our best advice and how to break-through.
  • Using Neuroscience to build robust family business relationships?

Saturday workshop:

During this workshop, Dr. Brad Klontz and Dr. Ted Klontz will guide the group through experienced-based exercises, working in smaller groups, designed to help participants:

  • Uncover their individual and family financial psychology,
  • Improve their listening and communication skills,
  • Resolve interpersonal conflicts, and
  • Give effective feedback and advice.
