What people are saying about Every Mind Matters: Mental health in the Workplace:

“It was great to identify the unhealthy practices — and more importantly, discuss the good workplace habits that could benefit and create change. “

“I found the segment on Presenteeism really interesting. We know that if we go to work with a cold, our work might suffer that day, and we cut ourselves slack. But when we’re feeling down, we don’t. This gave me a lot to reflect on.”

“I really enjoyed the break out groups. It was eye-opening to learn people aren’t alone as they think they are. “

“It [this workshop] is so practical, for my own mental health, for staff, and everyone around us, it’s just good training that we can use everyday.”
