Monitoring progress raises goal attainment, and the effect is larger when progress is reported.

That moderator is the whole reason this is a series with a report after each session rather than one talk at lunch. It is also a reliable nudge and not a transformation, and it was not measured on your staff.
01 · In the room
Nobody gets on the floor. Everybody leaves with one thing.
Sleep, and why regularity beats duration
Breathing you can use at your desk
One thing to change this week
Street clothes, no equipment, no floor work, no filming. Nothing is sold while anybody is in the room, and nobody is asked to stand up in front of colleagues.
02 · What comes back to you
One page, after every session.
How many people came. What the room asked about most. What was suggested. Nothing that could be traced to a person.
How many attended, and nothing about who
What the room asked about, in aggregate
The one change offered that week
Below five responses, no figure at all
The five response floor is not a courtesy. In a small team, a total built from two answers identifies both of them. AGG_MIN = 5 in the governed price file, so this page and the privacy policy cannot drift apart.
03 · What you never receive
The privacy promise is a limit on me, not a setting you choose.
No names. Not who attended, and not who did not.
No health information. Nothing anybody says in the room reaches you, in any form, ever.
No roster. Attendance is voluntary and nonattendance is not reported to anyone.
No figure built from fewer than five responses, which means some questions simply go unanswered in a small team.
No crossover. If somebody later becomes a coaching client of mine, you are not told, and nothing from that work returns to you.
Written into the privacy policy in the footer of every page on this site, not just promised here. Read it before you buy anything, including this.
Why it is built this way
A wellbeing session that reports on individuals is a performance review wearing a different coat, and people can tell. Attendance collapses, the honest questions stop being asked, and what you paid for stops existing. Withholding the data is not a concession to privacy law. It is the only way the session works at all.
It also means I cannot prove to you that any one person benefited. That is a real cost of buying this, and it is yours to weigh rather than mine to explain away.
04 · What it costs
A start, an end, and one number.
The first session at your workplace. No obligation after it.
A quarter. 4 sessions across 12 weeks, a written report after each, take home cards.
A single session after the free one, if a quarter is more than you want to commit.
One invoice for the quarter, issued in the name of Elevate Health & Fitness LLC. No subscription, no renewal that happens unless you ask for it.
Why the first one is free
A room of thirty people is the only place this business meets thirty of the right people at once, and that is worth more to me than the fee. It is also the rung an office manager can approve without asking anybody, which is the entire reason it works.
What I ask in return is the room, notice to your staff, and permission to leave the take home cards. That is the trade, and it is the whole of it.

06 · The next step
Check a date. The first one costs nothing and commits you to nothing.
Twenty minutes on a call to find a date and work out what your people would actually turn up for. If it is not a fit I will say so on that call.
