Preventing Diabetes for a Global Investment Firm via Scalable Coaching

THE CHALLENGE

Identifying and Addressing Metabolic Risk

Like many forward-thinking organizations, this global investment management company recognizes that when employees thrive, the business does, too. That’s why leadership treats well-being as a strategic priority, right alongside profitability.

This commitment to well-being made it especially alarming when they uncovered a high rate of prediabetes across their employee population. According to the CDC, more than 98 million U.S. adults (roughly one in three) have prediabetes, most without knowing it. Meanwhile, prediabetes can easily spiral into other long-term health risks.

Left unaddressed, the long-term employee health & financial risks would only continue to grow. So, they contacted Exos to turn around their employee health outcomes.

THE STORY

A Targeted, Coach-Led Prevention Model

Exos partnered with the global investment firm and its on-site primary care provider to deliver a Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP). The goal: to elevate employee health at scale, reducing risk progression through a data-driven program.

The program launched as a strategic pilot at three core locations chosen for scalability across the broader population. On-site clinic staff identified eligible participants through A1C screenings and other clinical and lifestyle risk factors.

Once enrolled, participants were introduced to their dedicated Exos coach, who would guide them through a year-long journey to improve health outcomes. This one-on-one relationship was a cornerstone of the program’s success, combining clinical insight with behavioral coaching to drive sustainable change.

Exos coaches enrolled 247 employees across 6 cohorts. At every touchpoint, our integrated, high-touch care team guided them side-by-side to drive long-term behavior change.
