Beyond Employee Resilience: A Focus on Mental Wellness in the Workplace

It’s time to realize that managers and leaders have an opportunity (and an obligation) to positively impact their employees’ overall mental wellness within the sphere of work life.

Read More

Employee mental wellness is so much more complicated than simply focusing on resilience training. The buzz about resilience in the workplace puts the onus of responsibility on the individual employees. If we’ve learned anything from the Great Resignation and the “quiet quitting” movements of 2022, it’s that employees are seeking a balance between their work obligations and their personal lives, and they are willing to bail on a job that doesn’t feel supportive of this balance. It’s time to realize that managers and leaders have an opportunity (and an obligation) to positively impact their employees’ overall mental wellness within the sphere of work life.

Attendee Takeaways:

1. Attendees will recognize the limitations of utilizing a resiliency model in an effort to impact employee mental wellness
2. Attendees will have a better understanding of what motivates employees to be engaged in their work
3. Empathy is not a skill everyone possesses in equal measure; but as a skill, it can be improved upon with enough focus and practice
4. Employee engagement is a two-way street: attendees will learn ways to navigate their side of that street
