Building relationships atwork and beyond
Healthy relationships at work are a key part of overall well-being. Through the Healthy Emory Career and Learning Series, complete at least 90 minutes of learning for an opportunity to earn a medical plan well-being incentive or reward.Completion of the series requires courses on topics including navigating change, self-care and managing difficult conversations. Additional learning opportunities in areas such as emotional intelligence, relationship management and networking allow employees to develop further skills that enhance both personal and professional connections.
These learning opportunities are open to both Emory Healthcare and Emory University employees:
- Emory Healthcare employees complete learning through LinkedIn Learning.
- Emory University employees complete learning through Brainier.
Emory University and Emory Healthcare both also offer Employee Re as another key avenue for connection. Employees are encouraged to explore and join ERGs aligned with their interests or identities. While many groups host fewer events during July and August, joining now can help employees get connected ahead of increased programming in the fall.

Volunteer opportunities are another great way to build connections beyond your day-to-day work. Through Emory Open, you can explore meaningful ways to give back, connect with colleagues and the community, and, in some cases, earn medical plan well-being incentives for participation.
