| Heather Bailey
Client Wellness Director
Heather Bailey enjoys a unique position within McGohan Brabender (MB), as it is her job to identify and address company-wide needs-- and then produce results! Since joining MB in 2004, she has laid the groundwork to establish MB’s Human Resources Department, created an internal performance-based bonus program, and formalized a charitable giving program to serve the communities of which MB is a part.
As the Client Wellness Director, Heather’s most recent challenge has been to develop a wellness program that can be carried out to clients. Modeling the program after MB’s own successful CLIMB (Changing Lifestyles Inside McGohan Brabender) wellness program, she steers companies to harness employee volunteers to own and carry the message of “wellness” to their fellow employees. This product has been branded as “eMBrace Wellness,” a customized solution for clients of all sizes to use when establishing in-house wellness programs. Heather also plays a large part in customizing and delivering MB’s wellness tracking software, known as wellVibe. Through wellVibe Heather helps employers assign and measure the preventive actions that employees take toward wellness in a manner that is both age and gender specific.
In 2007, she was a workshop presenter at the state-wide Healthy Ohio conference and also became certified through WELCOA (Wellness Council of America). In 2009, MB won the Gold Level Well Workplace Award from WELCOA. This is based on the success of CLIMB to impact employee health.
Heather brings over 20 years of professional experience to McGohan Brabender. Before joining MB, Heather held the position of Vice President of Grants and Programs at The Dayton Foundation. Through this non-profit work, she developed the skills to work with volunteer leadership who strive to bring good to the community. This skill serves her well as she pulls together volunteers to create cultures of wellness in their own companies.
Heather is a graduate of Earlham College in Richmond, Indiana, where she earned two Bachelor’s degrees: a B.A. in Economics and a B.A. in Business Management.
