Building Healthier Workplaces with Joana Pinon-Bertumen: Movement, Mindset & the Fifth Scorecard
If your company tracks profit, process, and people, but not health… you’re missing the point.
In this episode, Joana Pinon-Bertumen of 360 Fit Teams joins Marie to challenge how we define success in the workplace. They talk about burnout, movement, company culture, and why health and wellness deserve their own spot in your KPI scorecard. From step trackers to office gym design, Joana shares how companies can create sustainable wellness programs that actually engage people—and get results.
Because you can’t lead from burnout—and your people can’t perform from exhaustion.
Key Highlights:
Movement is a leadership tool and a burnout buffer.
Wellness must be culture-led, not just HR-led.
6,000 steps a day is the new baseline—most employees hit just 1,500.
Step challenges and micro-movements work better than forced gym time.
Wellness check-ins humanize the workplace and build trust.
Nutrition and fitness are keystone habits that support all other health routines.
Wellness ROI is real—engaged employees are healthier, happier, and more productive.
The “fifth scorecard” is health—without it, no other business metric thrives.
