Attracting key decision makers from every sector of the wellness industry, the 11th annual Global Wellness Summit (GWS) returns to USA from 9-11 October 2017.
Breakers Palm Beach will host this year's event, which will play a key role in shaping the content of the conference taking place in Palm Beach, Florida.
Supporting The Breakers are two Florida-based institutions, Palm Beach Atlantic University and Cigna Corporation.
This year’s Summit will see delegates and influencers immersed in wellness-focused business that prioritises employee wellbeing and social responsibility, as well as the opportunity to experience some of The Breakers initiatives first hand.
Attendees will also learn of the resort’s longstanding, committed owners and executive team, who have developed a wellness-focused business that empowers team members to attain professional and personal goals. The result is a high-achieving workforce, to which CEO Paul Leone attributes the resort’s success as one of America’s leading and most profitable independent hotels.
“We believe that the heart and soul of an organisation drives its long-term success,” said Leone. “We look forward to not only sharing our many initiatives - including our dedicated Wellness Team, unique wellness incentives, healthcare discounts, and financial wellness programmes that include college and retirement planning – with delegates, but anticipate engaging them directly in our spirit of community service and environmental advocacy.”
The resort’s sustainability initiatives include innovative water conservation practices, energy efficiency programs and highly impactful waste reduction measures designed to reduce landfill.
“Hotels and resorts, especially those with spa and wellness offerings, need to make the wellness of people and planet a priority. At The Breakers you can really see and feel that this is taking place and is part of their organisational DNA. It’s a great model,” said Susie Ellis, GWS chairman and CEO.
This year’s Summit is co-chaired by Professor Gerry Bodeker, PhD, clinical psychologist and public health academic (University of Oxford, UK; Columbia University, New York); Clare Martorana, formerly of Everyday Health and WebMD, now Digital Service Expert, United States Digital Service; and Maggie Hsu, advisor for U.S. online platform Zappos.
