Connected Ape see working life as a positive force for wellbeing. Undeniably humans find achieving meaningful results and navigating careers or organisational life challenging. It can often leave us feeling stretched and stressed.

In 2019 a Financial Times survey reported that the average worker lost 38 days of productivity per year due to work-related stress factors. This is not surprising as humans have not evolved in the hyper-connected, complex, rapidly changing present-day work environment. Yet work is where many of us commit much of our energy and most of our waking hours.

This has profound implications for the wellbeing of employees as well as the performance of their organisations. Gallup research shows that supporting people’s career wellbeing is the foundation of wellbeing across a person’s “whole life”. Employee “whole life” wellbeing is in turn the key for organisations to thrive: 

"The five key elements of wellbeing are career, social, financial, physical and community - in that order. Career wellbeing is first because Gallup finds that this element is the very foundation of 'the best possible life.' Everything starts there.” - Wellbeing at Work (Gallup - 2021).

This is why we founded Connected Ape. Evolving Life in Work - Nurturing employee wellbeing, engagement, resilience and mental fitness within organisations really matters. As Kamil Toume notes “The real competitive advantage in any business is one word only, which is people.”

Evolving Life In Work is an investment that reduces the negative human and organisational costs of disengagement, stress, burnout and poor mental health.

Connected Ape’s coaching, workshops, talking therapy and mentoring enable professional lives that are well lived and amplify the good that organisations bring to the world.

If this has sparked your Simian curiosity, we would love to be part of your organisation’s story. Please say hello to set up a discovery call to explore how working together might benefit you.
