Abstract

This monograph is a collection of small articles provided to University staff engaged in the Global Corporate Challenge (GCC); a pedometer-based workplace health initiative. The articles highlight the conceptual journey of initial engagement, progression and cessation of the initiative with focus on participant interaction, behaviour and subsequent performance. At each stage, each article is linked to health promotion theory and attempt to relate to the participant experience of sustaining and maintaining physical activity during the GCC's active time-frame. The articles where shown in an email newsletter to staff engaging in the initiative in the spring - summer 2013 period.
