Moving Challenge – Our Team Wellbeing Program

Every small action counts. Through our Moving Challenge, we come together to move for good and show how collective wellbeing can make a difference.

The Moving Challenge is our internal 6-month wellbeing program that helps our teams build healthy habits, all while making a positive impact on society and the planet.

The program is currently taking place in 8 GlobalLogic locations across Europe: Romania, Poland, Ukraine, Slovakia, Croatia, Sweden, Germany, and UK&I. It motivates our colleagues to get outdoors and stay active through walking, running, or cycling.

Participants track their progress through an internal app, which syncs with activities recorded on Strava or Sports Tracker. Every kilometer earns points through our internal scoring system, and a leaderboard lets colleagues see how they’re doing compared to each other.

The program has six levels, with prizes unlocked as more participants reach the minimum point target at each level.

“The Moving Challenge gives that extra push on days when motivation is low, and I’ve never regretted getting out and moving, even when it felt hard at first. It’s a healthy habit disguised as a fun competition.”

Cristian Danciu GlobalLogic Romania

“The Moving Challenge encourages me to spend more time actively with my family. My younger son learned to ride a bike so we could earn points together for the challenge.”

“I’m glad my participation in Moving Challenge aligns with GlobalLogic’s and Hitachi’s values. For me, leaving the car at home and taking the bike to commute to work is one personal aspect of that commitment.”

Fritz Echternacht GlobalLogic Germany

“The Moving Challenge pushes me to go outside even for a short walk if I am stuck the whole day with work. Also, the colleague next to me on the leaderboard said that I motivated her to do more sports, which is nice to hear.”
