Wellness challenge leaderboards are a great way to motivate participants and encourage healthy competition!  Raise the stakes by allowing participants to view the leaderboard with just individuals and teams from their “organization,” which can be any subgroup within your company (e.g., division, department, location, etc.).  Whether you are running an individual or team wellness challenge, you can assign participants to organizations in your Wellable Admin Account, which will enable them to have access to organization-specific leaderboards.

Pro tip: Highlight this new feature in your next wellness challenge by organizing teams by department or division.  For some added motivation, get leadership involved by designating them as team captains!
