Key Takeaways

We should seek to de-stigmatise mental health issues as soon as we can. Furthermore, great organisations know that businesses perform better when our staff are healthy, motivated and focussed.
Always be prepared and willing to ask for help if needed. Indeed, asking for help is not a sign of weakness. Allowing another to help you empowers them, and passes along permission for them to do the same if they need to.
Certainly, keeping active is an important element in reducing stress lifting spirits. As leaders, encourage your teams to be more active, and more than once a day.

Best Moments

‘Mental health issues are very much falling into a black hole’
‘We must help staff to feel that they are valued and supported’
‘If we’re focussed and energised, we can often achieve a lot more’
‘Ask how people feel, and most importantly listen to the answer’
