As global workforces become more distributed, diverse, and complex, organizations are grappling with how to deliver mental health support that is both equitable and effective. For many, fragmented well-being vendors and rising behavioral health costs make it difficult to identify issues early or ensure consistent access across regions.
Autodesk—an industry leader in design and engineering software—faced this challenge head-on.
With more than 14,000 employees across 48 countries, the company needed a way to support employee well-being, reduce operational complexity, and deliver consistent, proactive care to a global workforce. The solution came in the form of Modern Health’s Adaptive Care Model, which helped Autodesk achieve three times its engagement benchmark within the first month of launch.
As Autodesk scaled, so did the pressures on its workforce. Employees were experiencing rising levels of burnout, fatigue from shifting organizational priorities, and increased leaves of absence. Behavioral health claims had also become a significant cost driver.
At the same time, Autodesk was piecing together three separate well-being solutions—each serving a different purpose but failing to create a cohesive, preventive experience for employees.
This fragmentation created three core challenges:
To continue delivering a best-in-class employee experience while maintaining a high-performing culture, Autodesk needed a unified, scalable solution.
Autodesk’s goal was clear: create a global well-being strategy that meets employees where they are—clinically, culturally, and personally.
Modern Health’s Adaptive Care Model offered the right fit by providing:
One member experience, one set of insights, and one place where employees could find the help they needed.
From resilience-building and coaching to therapy and crisis care.
Each care plan adapts based on an individual’s needs, identity, preferences, and regional context.
Including a diverse, culturally centered global provider network.
Autodesk launched Modern Health in February 2025, giving employees access to:
The Adaptive Care Model ensured that employees received the right type of care at the right moment—whether they were building resilience skills, navigating life events, or seeking clinical treatment.
Within the first months of launch, Autodesk saw rapid global adoption and strong indicators of improved well-being.
Fast access not only helps employees sooner—it drives better outcomes and reduces the likelihood of escalated clinical needs.
These results reinforced Autodesk’s commitment to creating a high-performing, resilient workforce supported by accessible, personalized care.
One of the most compelling findings came from analyzing regional engagement patterns.
Employees worldwide didn’t engage with care the same way—and the Adaptive Care Model made room for those differences:
This reinforced what Autodesk already knew: supporting a global workforce requires solutions that can flex—not force employees into a single modality.
Autodesk’s experience underscores a broader shift in how leading companies think about global mental health support.
A unified approach simplifies operations and helps organizations identify emerging trends sooner.
The ability to tailor care by region, culture, preference, and severity drives better engagement and outcomes.
Early intervention helps prevent burnout, decreases LOA-related impact, and supports sustained performance.
Autodesk’s partnership with Modern Health has enabled the company to strengthen its global culture, support employees through both everyday challenges and clinical needs, and create a more resilient workforce.
For organizations navigating similar challenges—global complexity, burnout, rising behavioral health costs—Autodesk offers a powerful example of what’s possible when mental health care adapts to people, not the other way around.
