Alyfe Wellbeing Strategies expands team of experts with new hires, board members


Our growing team of experts has experience designing and implementing well-being strategies that drive meaningful results for organizations, while helping individuals improve their quality of life. I couldn’t be more pleased to have this team leading Alyfe into the next phase of our growth.

Alyfe Wellbeing Strategies announced today that it has expanded its product development team and advisory board with the addition of several industry leaders. Headquartered in Columbus, Ohio, Alyfe delivers tailored workplace solutions that address all aspects of well-being while delivering meaningful results for employers, and helping individuals and families thrive at work, at home, and in their community.

According to Kay Lakhi, founder and CEO of Alyfe Wellbeing Strategies, the company has expanded its team to better meet a growing employer interest in workplace health and well-being. Recent surveys show that employee well-being is becoming increasingly popular among organizations of all sizes, as employers look for solutions that are customized to their workplace and personalized to the needs of individual employees.

“Creating a workplace culture that considers all aspects of employee well-being takes more than an off-the-shelf solution. It requires real people with real-world experience who understand that employees are more than a number,” said Lakhi. “The addition of these industry leaders increases our understanding of behavior change and our ability to continually develop solutions that deliver a personalized, trackable experience through the best of technology – with a human touch.”

Changes to the Alyfe team include:

  • David Anderson, Ph.D., has been named to the newly formed Alyfe Advisory Board. Anderson is a nationally recognized expert on population and workplace health, behavior change, and measuring the effectiveness of well-being strategies. He was previously co-founder, executive vice president and chief health officer at StayWell before becoming founder and president of VisioNEXT LLC in 2017. Anderson has published numerous scientific studies about behavior change and workplace best practices. He is joined on the Advisory Board by Priya Lakhi, JD, who continues to bring her expertise in executive leadership training, workplace happiness/gratitude and “wellness through wholeness” strategies to Alyfe’s development initiatives. Alyfe will continue to expand its Advisory Board in the coming months.
  • Aubrey Olson has been hired as vice president of product management. In this role, she will be responsible for expanding Alyfe’s suite of well-being solutions that deliver a balance of cutting-edge technology with high-touch interactivity.
  • Erin Rademacher has been hired as vice president of strategy and performance. In this role, she will oversee the development of individual and population health and well-being evaluation strategies, as well as tactics to measure and assess program effectiveness.
  • Lesley Lesch has joined Alyfe as vice president of client success, overseeing the account management team and the implementation and outcomes generated through the customized well-being initiatives the company develops for employers.
  • Angelee Richards has been named vice president of people and culture for Alyfe, transitioning from the role of vice president of operations and director of client services. In her new position, Richards will lead the human resources team and oversee the company’s own well-being initiatives.

“Well-being is increasingly recognized as essential for business success because of the correlation to corporate performance, improved employee engagement, and productivity,” said Lakhi. “Our growing team of experts has firsthand experience in designing and implementing well-being strategies that drive meaningful business results for organizations, while helping individuals create lasting changes that improve their quality of life. I couldn’t be more pleased to have this team leading Alyfe into the next phase of our growth.”
