Women are twice as likely as men to be seeking connection when talking about wellbeing . This is evidenced by them using phrases such as , ‘ Is anyone going through this ?’ or ‘ Can anyone help with this ?’ more often than men , who are 36 % more likely to seek a specific answer .
Research also shows that women spend twice as long writing a post on wellbeing than men ( 12 minutes for women compared to six minutes for men ), indicating that they take more care in how their communications are perceived or that they have more complex issues where they want support .
Data from the report which is titled , The leaders ' guide to truly understanding your people ( and making better business decisions ), also shows that questions relating to personal challenges increased by over a third from 2021 to 2022 ( 38 %). In addition , a third of all posts on the Rungway platform in the second half of 2022 were about wellbeing .
Julie Chakraverty , Founder of Rungway , said : “ In companies , change is getting harder to deliver successfully and forward thinking leaders understand that employees need to be invested in . One of the best ways to do this is to give people a way to safely collaborate , to raise issues and to co-create change . This enables leaders to correct any issues while at the same time allowing all employees to feel as if they ’ re truly part of the change journey and are being heard in a way that helps to build their resilience .
