Synopsis:
The Mental Health Conversations online course is designed to help managers gain an understanding of mental health and wellbeing in the workplace, know how to identify if a team member is not coping, and respond appropriately to support the person and the team, so they can perform at their best.
Description:
To face the coming challenges in the workplace and the world at large, Leaders, Managers and Supervisors must respond to the challenges presented with a stable, grounded, and clear presence of mind.
It is essential for the sustainability and future of the business, and equally for the health and wellbeing of each employee, that organizations align the very best mental health knowledge and most powerful and positive paradigms so that staff can proactively deal with whatever occurs in the coming weeks and months.
That’s why it’s so important that managers gain an understanding of mental health and wellbeing in the workplace, know how to support the resilience of their teams, and how to respond if a team member is not coping. Mental Health Conversations for Managers equips Leaders and Managers to do just that.
