From July 2012
Wellness Makes for a Happy Workplace
by Shannon Colavecchio on July 30, 2012Ask anyone here at Moore Communications Group to list the reasons why Florida Trend just named our firm – for the third year running – a Best Place to Work, they’d probably ask you for an extra sheet of paper. Topping the list, and one of the reasons closest to my heart, is MCG Wellness, the in-house wellness program entering its third year.

So it was with one of my most recent team projects here at Moore Communications Group.
