Course Overview
Promoting positive mental health in the workplace is a no-brainer when it comes to developing and retaining staff and enabling them to work at the top of their game.
Managers are in a unique position to make a positive difference: promoting, supporting and sustaining the mental health of their teams. They play a critical role in picking up the signs of mental ill-health – early intervention and keeping employees well are more cost-effective than dealing with long-term problems. Yet even fewer HR respondents (29%) believe the managers in their organisations are confident and competent to spot the early warning signs of mental ill-health.
This interactive session is designed to provide the background needed to help managers do just that.
