Why Cadence?
A cadence is the flow or rhythm of events, especially the pattern in which something is experienced. It is usually associated with a musical composition or a signal of events commonly found in an athletic competition or a military campaign.
In most coordinated events there is some tempo, pulse or rhythm to a sequence of actions. A cadence will usually set those events in motion and sustain its existence.
In a corporate wellness context, we title our newsletter Cadence to reflect our ethos, a signal or rhythm which:
- sets in motion and sustains initiatives that maximize individual performance,
- fosters organization development, and
- facilitates societal cohesion.
Cohesion? Cohesion is defined by the United States Marines as the bonds of trust between members of a group in these variations:
- Horizontal Cohesion – among leaders,
- Vertical Cohesion – among leaders and its subordinates, and
- Societal Cohesion – among an organization and its society.
At the root of cohesion is the stability of the individual. The individual capacity level is a function of her consumption and readiness to respond to stressors that can impact performance.
The execution of our mandate is propelled by Sport Psychology and Organization Development principles. Various subject matter experts will contribute to our issues. To inspire the individual, relentless optimism must persist to remove those barriers that impact performance. In order to maximize the performance of its employees the environment must be ripe for initiatives to flourish.
