Thriving Together: Cultivating a Supportive Work Environment for Mental Health and Wellbeing
May 14, 2024
2:00 p.m. ET/12:00 p.m. MT
In today's corporate landscape, buzzwords like "psychological safety" and "burnout" abound, but what do they really mean? And how can we translate them into tangible actions that demonstrate genuine support for employees?
In honor of Mental Health Awareness Month, join Dr. Gabe Hatch from the O.C. Tanner Institute and Gabrielle Jones of Personify Health as they examine the crucial topic of workplace wellbeing—both within formal structures such as benefits programs and through informal, everyday practices.
Our speakers will share insights into the current workplace wellbeing landscape, including what the data says about what employees need and want from wellness programs and how integrated recognition supports holistic wellbeing. We'll wrap things up by spotlighting what the theory looks like in practice as Brad Bruce, Sr. Director of Wellbeing at CIBC, shares a behind-the-scenes look at the objectives driving their own program and the results they've seen.
During this webinar we'll explore:
- Current data on mental health and wellbeing—and why it matters
- The theory behind behavioral activation and how it applies in the workplace
- Practical ways to foster physical and mental wellbeing on your teams
- How integrating recognition into your wellbeing program increases impact
- Ideas you can bring back to your own teams to create a workplace environment where employees feel valued and supported in their journey towards holistic wellness
