September is Suicide Prevention Month – Take Care of Your Employees
According to the CDC, Suicide is one of the leading causes of death in the United States. All too often we hear stories in corporate America about a friend or beloved colleague taking their own life. We are shocked, saddened, and traumatized, but how many times have we heard “No one ever saw it coming.”
Mental Well-Being Matters in the Workplace
Mental well-being should be at the forefront of all organizations. Having access to more robust resources is great, but talking about mental health, hosting workshops, and hosting seminars outlining what is actually available to employees is the key.
Mental Health Awareness Month
A great leader is developed over time – and usually with the help of another great leader. Leadership is the ability to perform at a very high level and to motivate others to do the same by creating an atmosphere of inclusion and engagement which enables others to perform and to grow into successful leaders.
Mental and Physical Well-Being in the Workplace
