SSEL2605. From Mental Health Awareness to Culture of Care Action: Cultivating a Stigma-free Workplace

Americans' self-rated mental health is now at the lowest point since Gallup started tracking this issue in 2001. Roughly one-third of U.S. adults, particularly among young adults and women, report feeling high stress and overwhelm most days. At a time when leaders are navigating heightened stress, overwhelm and emotional strain, burnout and compassion fatigue- within their teams and themselves, and are eager for effective workforce retention strategies, it is time that we leverage our influence and lead stigma-free, open conversations about mental health. Participants will actively engage throughout the workshop- a blend of education, reflection, and shared experiences, and prepare themselves to confidently impact workplace well-being, and foster a culture of care, emotional resilience and personal agency!


Learning Objectives:

  • 1. Increase knowledge about mental health, illness and wellness
  • 2. Identify stigma and its impact on workplace culture and performance
  • 3. Prepare to lead as an ally- creating a stigma-free culture of care
