WCWI Executive Pledge for Mental Well-being

This pledge is for:

• C-Suite Executives

• Other senior-level executives

At WCWI, we believe that workplace well-being starts with leadership. By signing this Executive Pledge for Mental Well-being, you are committing to fostering a culture that prioritizes mental health, reduces stigma, and empowers employees with the support they need to thrive.

This is more than just a pledge—it’s a movement. As part of WCWI’s commitment to transforming workplace well-being across Wisconsin, we recognize that change happens when leaders take action. Whether you’re signing as an individual C-suite-level leader or as part of a company-wide initiative, your commitment contributes to a growing network of workplaces dedicated to mental well-being.

By submitting this pledge, you:

• Publicly affirm your dedication to mental well-being in your workplace.
• Gain recognition as a leader in advancing workplace well-being.
• Allow WCWI to spotlight your commitment in our communications and social media (with your permission).
• Be recognized at WCWI's 2025 Employee Well-being Conference on Dec. 2-3 in Madison, WI!

More than a membership – it’s a movement. Thank you for being part of the change.
