Wellbeing Superstars June 28, 2023
At ALM Partners, work is a serious business – but it’s not taken too seriously. For ALMP colleagues, teamwork is the name of the game.
ALM Partners provides expert risk management, regulatory reporting and data management solutions for the financial sector. The company’s 120-strong team works seamlessly together both in the office and in their free time.
In January 2023, ALM Partners and Liikkuva Suomi kicked off Steps to everyday well-being, a collaborative coaching programme. The first coaching period brings ALMP’s staff together to think about their everyday lives and the challenges around well-being.
The well-being and the holistic development of staff is one of the key topics in ALM Partners’ Corporate Sustainability Report. For ALMP, skilled and well-off staff in the midst of change is a self-evident theme of corporate responsibility.
At ALM Partners, teamwork is first and foremost about learning together and supporting colleagues to develop their skills and knowledge. Not through gritted teeth, but because of a work culture of genuine willingness to do your best and support each other as individuals.
ALMP colleagues like to spend time together after work, too, immersed into the world of Esports, meeting up for board game evenings, or for sweatier teamwork such as the gruelling Tough Viking obstacle race.
Emmi Jokinen from Liikkuva Suomi relays the mood from the coaching period’s kick-off meeting: “It was amazing to see how such a positive, tight-knit team got onboard with the coaching, with the sole aim of starting a journey towards long-term well-being at work and in everyday life, guided by Liikkuva Suomi’s expert coaches.”
ALMP’s CEO Aaro Mäkelä is excited about the coaching programme: “This is where we start building a culture of activity, integrated in our everyday lives. It’s fantastic to spur each other on, and to grow our team spirit.”
And that’s exactly it. Wellbeing at work and in our everyday lives is built through teamwork and a balanced approach to life, together with the people around you.
