Maria Paviour, CEO at Wellbeing with Cari, is an Occupational Neuropsychologist, and founder of Cari® (the Workplace Wellbeing & Performance Platform) and the NeuChem® Coaching Model. She is also an Award-winning App Innovator, Amazon Best-Selling Author and International Speaker. Maria has over 25 years experience specialising in the neuroscience of wellbeing and performance at work. Maria said “The science proves that wellbeing is not simply good for performance; true wellbeing IS performance. When we are not at our peak of wellbeing we cannot perform, but to be well is also to be working at our peak – the two are inexorably linked”. She works extensively with the public and private sector to transform “vampire” and “zombie” organisational environments into high performing “phoenix” cultures. Maria delivers wellbeing solutions to organisations that provide powerful data to identify and solve presenteeism and poor performance. This is achieved through diagnostic and proactive tailored support, whilst also supercharging engagement in that organisations’ existing wellbeing initiatives. Maria is fully committed to supporting the Wellbeing Economy Alliance and #BuildingBusinessBackBetter. She is driven by a passion to strategically apply neuroscience in organisations to unlock human capability and put wellbeing at the core of everything we do, to maximise performance. Maria and her team are #joysuperspreaders who are on a mission to bring joy to life!
