Collaboration Center

At ILWM, we believe that health and wellness can be created for all, if individuals and organizations work together to develop transformative health solutions built upon prevention, wellness and self-management.

ILWM hopes that our Collaboration Center will allow individuals and organizations to better collaborate on developing transformative solutions to the health challenges facing Americans today. We hope members will create solutions, argue their merits and work together to improve on them so that they can be rapidly adopted by others.

How it Works

ILWM has developed a state-of-the-art online wellness platform for members at all health and fitness levels and for organizations—both large and small. This unique model is powered by MemberHub—an innovative online collaboration tool designed specifically for member-driven organizations like ILWM. Using evidenced-based programs, ILWM or its members can invite, challenge, track, and motivate each other in a fun, inclusive, and positive online environment.

Unhealthy lifestyle behaviors are communicable and large studies have proven that conditions like obesity spread within social networks. Given this, we believe social networking tools must be incorporated into any toolkit that seeks to provide sustainable solutions for unhealthy behaviors.

We have separated our Hubs to meet the needs of two audiences: the individual and the organization. Anyone is welcome to join a feature Hub created for individuals. We do ask that individuals requesting to join the employer-specific Hubs be business owners, human resource and finance executives or managers, or key decision-makers as it pertains to the health benefits, management and productivity in their workplace.

ILWM’s unique Collaboration Center makes strategic healthcare practice reports and research available to corporate management and human resources groups. By mining and analyzing the collected clinical and outcomes data, ILWM’s research group works with clients to identify Best Practices for corporate wellness and healthcare. In addition to clinical data, social networking and collaboration systems data are integrated into the process to identify “real life” behaviors and to tease from this mass of data a coherent strategy for each organization. Member research interviews, proprietary operating and clinical data, focus groups, case studies, and secondary research all add unique insight to our recommendations. These services are available as white papers, strategic reviews, and customized turnkey programs that are ready to be implemented. ILWM provides consulting, research, and implementation services to effectively change the way you do business.
