Addis Ababa, December 2025— Scopus Training and Consultancy PLC has successfully concluded a pioneering two-round training program for the Higher Directors of the Commercial Bank of Ethiopia (CBE), held at the Head Office from November 25 to December 3, 2024. The program introduced a comprehensive three-pillar framework for employee wellness, focusing on Nutrition, Psychological Wellness, and Office-Based Physical Exercise to build a healthier organizational culture from the leadership level down.
A Structured Framework for Modern Leadership Wellness
Moving beyond conventional leadership training, the program equipped CBE's senior directors with a practical, holistic model for fostering well-being within their teams. This initiative reflects a forward-thinking approach to corporate health, recognizing that sustained organizational performance is intrinsically linked to employee vitality.
The three-pillar wellness framework served as the cornerstone of the training:
· Nutrition for Performance: Sessions emphasized the critical link between dietary habits, cognitive function, and sustained energy levels. Directors explored strategies for promoting healthier eating choices in the workplace, understanding how proper nutrition directly impacts focus, decision-making, and overall team productivity.
· Psychological Wellness: This pillar addressed mental and emotional health as a core component of professional effectiveness. Training modules covered techniques for stress management, building resilience, fostering inclusive communication, and creating a psychologically safe work environment where employees can thrive.
· Office-Based Physical Exercise: To combat the sedentary nature of office work, the program introduced practical, low-impact exercise routines that can be integrated into the workday. Directors learned and practiced stretches, desk-based movements, and posture correction techniques aimed at reducing physical strain and boosting energy.
Building a Culture of Health from the Top Down
“Leadership sets the tone for organizational culture,” said a lead wellness consultant from Scopus. “By empowering CBE’s directors with this three-pillar model, we are not just improving individual habits; we are providing the tools to actively model and champion a culture of holistic health throughout their departments. This is an investment in human sustainability.”
The Commercial Bank of Ethiopia’s participation underscores its commitment to its most valuable asset—its people. “Our vision extends beyond financial metrics to the holistic well-being of our staff,” noted a senior CBE Human Capital representative. “This training provides our leadership with a science-based framework to support our teams’ health, which we see as fundamental to innovation, service excellence, and long-term institutional strength.”
Conclusion: A Partnership Focused on Sustainable Growth
The successful delivery of this program marks another milestone in the ongoing collaboration between Scopus Training and Consultancy PLC and the Commercial Bank of Ethiopia. Scopus extends its sincere appreciation to CBE for its steadfast partnership and shared commitment to pioneering staff development initiatives that address the complete needs of the modern workforce.
This holistic wellness training positions CBE’s leadership to drive meaningful change, fostering a work environment where employee well-being is recognized as the true foundation of organizational success.
