Mental Health Workshops

Research has shown that, on average, the expected ROI of mental health initiatives in the workplace is $2.10 for every dollar invested. (You can read the research here.)

Please -don’t let money get in the way of looking after yourself and your employees. Let’s talk about how we can make this workable for you and your business.

Yes.

The learning outcomes of these workshops are to raise awareness and reduce stigma surrounding mental health conditions. We focus on strategies for individuals to look after their own mental health and well-being as well as having the skills and the confidence to have conversations with others they are concerned about.

Many of my clients see these as proactive and preventive steps in managing the issues related to mental health in the workplace. In Australia, ensuring the mental (or psychological) safety of employees is a legal obligation, just as looking after employees’ physical safety. I believe it is also the moral and ethical thing to do.

Side note: I feel inclined to point out that you may have employees with a diagnosed mental health condition. They are not required to disclose their condition and it is common for people with mental health challenges to become very skilled in masking them. Why? Because of their fear of judgement and discrimination. Also, many people receiving effective treatment for a mental health condition are totally capable of carrying out their required work duties.

And, the statistics tell us that one in five people in Australia are dealing with a mental health condition at any point in time. Consider this in respect to your number of employees.

Absolutely not!

I stipulate a maximum number purely to ensure the learning environment is optimal and that every individual receives the attention they need or desire.

I relish the opportunity to work in partnership with clients and learn more about why they have decided to provide their employees with this information and support. Designing learning events that achieve specific business outcomes is one of the reasons many clients choose to work with me.
