I'm an avid cyclist and a recent convert to commuting who's lucky enough to run his own company and would like to encourage other employees to do the same for the sake of fitness. I own a newspaper with 140 full-time employees. The older I get, the more I believe that caring for the entire person makes all the difference in the world in developing a high-performance workplace.
In wonder what innovative things companies are doing to promote this these days. Any ideas out there?
Here's one of my ideas. We don't have showers, lockers or a convenient place to store bicycles, so I'm considering adding those when we remodel. This could be developed in conjunction with an exercise room. Without showers or a changing area, it makes it challenging given our summer heat in central washington state to realistically commute.
