The goal is to provide lifestyle coaching for people at risk for, or already fallen victim to, burn-out. This lifestyle coaching will help to either prevent burn-out or support the recovery of burn-out. This is accomplished by using automated measurements of lifestyle (sleeping, activity, working), style tailoring of coaching and the ability to get professional support included.
ICT Science Question
Current lifestyle coaching solutions do not take an integrated and personalized approach to the coaching of employees for their mental and physical wellbeing. Therefore, the efficacy of these solutions is low. Furhtermore, existing coaching solutions do not cover the area of biorhythm, in case employees work in shifts, or have irregular working hours. We have shown that the use of Brightr within a program can increase peoples physical activity for > 30 minutes per day, and improve their sleep time with 30 minutes.
Application
Brightr is the platform that coaches people on several lifestyle areas in order to stay pyshically and mentally fit. Awareness is increasing that employees who are physically and mentally fit are also more productive, creative, and engaged. Brightr is different from its competitors because it provides integrated coaching on different aspects, and provides companies with the possibility to adapt and tailor the application to their employees.
