Session Topic

The COVID 19 Pandemic has placed additional stress and pressure on everyone. The changing environment requires leaders to make fundamental changes to workplace routines, operations and communications.

This change and uncertainty extends beyond the workplace and has affected life at home, threatened physical health, financial stability, has disrupted community, isolated people, and impacted relationships. This has required you as a leader to manage significant change and stress while also attending to the concerns of employees. We have valuable tools to help you measure employee needs along the entire spectrum of mental health, from promotion of wellbeing to intervention and care.
