S2 E186 • May 2, 2024 • 33 mins

In this episode, Roxanne Derhodge converses with Barb Veder about the critical issue of mental health in the workplace. They discuss the impact of COVID-19 on work culture, the need for a holistic approach, and the four pillars of safety. The episode also covers leadership training, the role of trust, and an overview of Aurora Well-being's services. It concludes with a call to action to address current corporate concerns.

Key Points

  • Organizations need to model the behavior they expect from others, particularly in leadership, to foster a culture of psychological safety and wellness.
  • To effectively address mental health in the workplace, companies must have a strategic, proactive approach that goes beyond surface-level solutions and integrates mental health into the culture.
  • Independent evaluation and collection of data regarding mental health concerns within a company can provide a more objective understanding of the workplace environment and employee needs.
