get ready to gather! new employee wellness initiative launching soon
dear colleagues,
we are excited to announce a new monthly gathering, lakehead gathers: your community, your wellbeing, designed to bring together all of us employees in a welcoming environment focused on connection, wellness, and community building.
what is lakehead gathers?
this initiative, part of our wellness strategy, is hosted by human resources and is all about creating a space where we come together, connect, and build a true sense of belonging. by sharing ideas, values, and even the little things that bring us joy, we strengthen our workplace community and remind each other that we’re part of something bigger. this initiative emphasizes the importance of connection in driving personal and professional growth, making every member feel valued and inspired.
why participate?
lakehead gathers is your opportunity to recharge, make meaningful connections, and gain fresh perspectives. whether it's through a shared story, a creative exchange, or a lively discussion, each gathering will enrich our community and support a balanced and vibrant campus culture. it's more than a lunch break—it's an opportunity to step away from our daily routines, engage with colleagues, and participate in activities that promote our personal and collective well-being. from interactive sessions like vision boarding and cultural celebrations to fun, relaxed picnics and movement-based activities, lakehead gathers will explore all nine dimensions of wellness throughout the year.
schedule and themes:
beginning february 20th, 2025, these lunchtime gatherings will take place in the faculty lounge (thunder bay) on the third thursday of most months from 12:00 p.m. to 1:30 p.m. (september, may, and december are excluded; july will be an outdoor event, weather permitting). for a preview of our upcoming sessions, please click here.
each session will offer a mix of activities like guest speakers, breakout discussions, and interactive experiences—plus plenty of unstructured time to simply connect with colleagues. drop in when you can, whether it's for a few minutes or the whole session—there’s no pressure! light refreshments will be provided, and feel free to bring your own lunch.
we encourage you to mark your calendars and join us for this journey in wellness and community building. stay tuned for more details on each upcoming session. for more information, please visit our website at lakeheadu.ca/lakeheadgathers
we look forward to seeing you there!
sincerely,
human resources
