How “The Ripple Effect” Program Promotes Connection and Social Capital: a Conversation with OWLS CEO Dr. Joel Bennett

Dr. Joel Bennett is President, Organizational Wellness & Learning Systems (OWLS), a consulting firm specializing in evidence-based wellness and e-learning technologies that promote organizational health and employee well-being. Joel joins us to discuss “The Ripple Effect,” an evidence-based approach for social capital in workplaces and communities.  Joel unpacks what the training consists of, how it’s delivered, and how it brings teams/groups together to promote community, connection, belonging, social capital, and collective efficacy. He explains why the program meets this moment in our society, politics, and at workplaces, what it will take to elevate the training into a movement…and why this is so important.
