People are diligently seeking purpose and meaning not only in their personal lives, but also in their professional lives – that important connection to sense of self. Meaningful work is a fundamental asset to a properly functioning work environment that can simultaneously strengthen an individual’s self-worth and overall well-being.
Employees want to see their work as being valuable and important to the overall picture. Without meaningful work in place, employees may start to feel like their work is not important and overall, may reduce retention. More importantly, employees who find their work is meaningful may experience significantly greater job satisfaction and increased productivity.
How do employees achieve meaningful work through the workplace?
Employees feel a sense of worth and are able to connect their work to meaningful purpose when an their talents are recognized, when their company’s mission is bigger than themselves, and employees and their families are supported during both good and trying times.
At Mission Health, we provide our employees with the best Mission Experience possible through our commitment to our CARES core values of Character, Attitude, Respect, Excellence and Service. We create a meaningful work experience by recognizing our employees through personalized growth opportunities and through our education and career development programs.
One of the development programs that Mission utilizes is the Make-A-Friend Mentorship Program. During this program, new employees are partnered with a mentor, which is an experienced Mission employee that exemplifies our CARES values, to easily transition our new employees while also enriching the career paths of our current employees.
Mission has also partnered with Capella University where employees can seek tuition discounts and continue their education through us! Capella University offers a FlexPath option so employees can easily earn their degree on demand, they can set their own deadlines, and leverage personal experience to advance at your own time and budget.

As we work towards consistently recognizing and retaining our dedicated workforce, we can’t overemphasize how important the Anniversary Celebration program is.
