Ranking Talent

The F4S Ranking Tool provides a snapshot of top talent based on proven success factors so you can move swiftly and confidently when making hiring decisions.

Hiring the right leaders and talent is one of the most difficult things to get right in an organisation — it can truly make or break your workplace culture.

In the past, hiring decisions were made based on skills and experience, but in the future of work, the X-factor is actually a candidate's unique attitudes and motivations.

Before, it was impossible to accurately spot that X-factor (unless you rely on inherently biased 'gut feel') and this often leads to poor talent acquisition outcomes.

But with our Ranking Tool you can easily short-list batches of candidates based on specific X-factors that are proven to predict whether someone will thrive in a particular role or culture.

In short: F4S saves HR and recruiters money and hundreds (or thousands!) of hours when hiring top talent that can help bring your team to that next level of success.

How online health coaching can help you achieve your goals

Are you struggling to shift stubborn excess weight or get a good night’s sleep? Or, perhaps no matter how hard you try, you just can’t seem to motivate yourself to exercise or eat healthily long-term?

If any of the above sounds familiar, you will benefit from Marlee online health coaching.

In our busy daily lives, overall wellness is something that many of us overlook. We tend to push our health to the side unless a serious medical condition forces us to think about it.

Yet, our physical well-being is something that affects every area of our lives – from our job readiness to our relationships. How you feel from the inside out has an enormous impact on how you show up in the world.

Working with a health coach allows you to take the reins of your life and start feeling your best again.

Outcomes with Marlee:

Why health coaching is important

You might be wondering 'Wait, but isn't health coaching just a pyramid scheme for weight loss programs?'. While it's true that some Multi-Level Marketing (MLM) programs are marketed as wellness coaching, there are many genuine coaches who impact peoples’ lives. Otherwise, there is no correlation between health coaching and MLMs.

Put simply, a health coach is someone who helps people make sustainable lifestyle choices. They guide, support, and encourage their clients to build a healthy lifestyle that works for them. Health coaches are also important allied health partners who can work with medical professionals to achieve better outcomes for their patients.

Research shows that health coaching can have important clinical improvements for a variety of chronic illness risk factors, such as blood pressure, fasting glucose, body weight, BMI and cardiorespiratory fitness². Plus, another study found that 85% of the risk of chronic disease is due to environmental factors³. By helping people carry out beneficial health behaviors, coaches could potentially save healthcare systems millions of dollars down the line.

Health coaching matters on an individual level, too. After all, health isn't just about the absence of diseases but rather, living to your full potential. Research shows that self-described healthy people are 20% happier on average⁴. Plus, they tend to have better career outcomes and earn more money⁵.

When you're healthy, you can show up as the best version of yourself in every part of your life – whether it's with your teammates in the office, or in your personal relationships and family.

Frequently asked questions

What is an online health coach?

An online health coach is someone who helps clients make intentional decisions about their wellness. Sometimes referred to as integrative health coach, they look at the big picture of how you want to feel every day. They are different from a personal trainer or a nutritionist, as they typically won't tell you what workouts to do or how many calories per day to eat (unless they have additional qualifications). However, they will be able to help you break goals down into achievable steps.

Is there evidence for health coaching?

Yes, research shows that health coaching can help individuals, organizations and medical providers achieve better health outcomes.

How can a health coach help me?

Working with an online health coach can help you gain control over health issues including:

  • Restorative sleep
  • Physical symptoms such as chronic inflammation
  • Chronic disease and medical conditions (in addition to working with professional healthcare providers).
  • Weight gain
  • Overcoming food challenges (such as sticking to FODMAP or another form of elimination diet)
  • Blood pressure levels
  • Sexual health and fertility care
  • Muscle loss due to aging
