Hello, and welcome to the first in a series that will explore the intersections of community health, worksite wellness, social marketing, and health promotion. My name is Matt West, and I’ll be blogging regularly about related topics and issues raised by the often confusing demands placed on us by the ever-changing landscape. My professional background is diverse, and over the years I’ve garnered unique expertise that I want to put at your disposal.
I want to spotlight current issues and concerns on the near horizon, but more than that, I hope to make each one of these blog posts useful to you in some way. Whether I’m discussing preventive health practices or community wellness initiatives, or social marketing strategies and the best marketing apps, I want to provide the context and the tools that will help you accomplish your wellness or health promotion goals.
Broadly speaking, the posts will function in three ways:
- By sharing links to useful resources and reliable content
- By comparing strengths and weaknesses of options and online tools
- By adding insight into the many topics of interest
Because of my background, I like to discuss how ideas, trends, and solutions in other industries apply to community health and worksite wellness with a confidence that comes from informed experience.
