Rising Health Costs and Leadership Burnout Are Not Separate Problems.

Leader wellbeing is 56 times more effective in shaping organisational wellbeing than stress management and resilience programmes.
— WorkWell Leaders Impact Measure v2.0 (2025)

If you are a CHRO or Total Rewards Leader, you are facing a dual crisis.

  1. Commercial Risk: Double-digit medical inflation and rising claims costs (Mental Health, MSK, Metabolic conditions).

  2. Cultural Risk: An "always-on" culture that is eroding your leadership capacity.

Traditional strategies treat these as separate issues. Your broker manages the cost; your L&D team manages the culture.

The Result: A disconnect that costs you millions. Insurance tools are designed to manage financial risk, but we need a new toolkit to elevate leader wellbeing and resolve ecosystem stress.


We Turn Your Health Data Into a Leadership Strategy.

Well Humans Thrive is a strategic advisory practice that bridges the gap between "Benefits Strategy" (Cost) and "Leadership Performance" (Culture).

We help you analyze your claims data to identify the root cause of your rising costs—then we guide your leadership on how to enhance their capacity to perform

Our Difference: The "Broker-to-Boardroom" Perspective

Most advisors specialize in either financial risk (brokers) or human performance (coaches). We bridge both. We analyze risk with the eye of a Global Benefits Leader, but solve the root cause with the mindset of a High-Performance Coach.

The Founder

Mark Kelly: Strategic Peer & Sustainable Performance Expert

I built Well Humans Thrive to be the partner I wish I had when I was in your seat.

As the former Global Head of Benefits & Wellbeing for a Tier-1 Management Consultancy, I understand the pressure of an in-house role balancing global risk and escalating costs whilst needing to maintain a premier EVP for over 35,000 employees in 50+ countries.

As a former Senior Global Benefits Consultant at global brokerage firms, I know how to navigate the complex insurance market, availability of claims data and critically how you can leverage the insights to elevating workforce wellbeing.

As an Ex-Team GB Cyclist, I know what it takes to sustain high performance under pressure, year after year.

I help People Leaders navigate the complex intersection of health, cost, and performance.
