An inside look at how a health-minded benefits leader provides individualized care for a diverse workforce.

Well-meaning companies can flood their workers with an overwhelming number of benefits offerings. One leader‘s approach: pare back the overlapping benefits and do a better job of engaging with workers–often in face-to-face meetings—about how to navigate what’s available to them and hear about what’s missing. Hot topics right now: student-loan relief and pet care.
