Mental Health Challenges in the Workplace

Mental health in the workplace was supposed to improve after the pandemic. It hasn’t. In fact, it’s worse. It’s a big topic, a challenging topic, and a critical one these days.

Perspectives of a Woman CEO host David Gee is joined by Marion Minor, owner and CEO at EPG Brand Acceleration and EPG Specialty Information, to discuss the enormity of the problem, as well as some causes and solutions.

They’ll be using some fresh data from Lyra Health that shows stress and anxiety among workers remains high. More than 1 in 3 respondents report their organization’s mental health declined in the past year. That’s up from 1 in 5 just a year ago. In addition, 36% of HR leaders believe employees struggled with severe or chronic depression over the past year, up from 21% a year ago.

Mental health challenges result in less focus, engagement and productivity, and causes large numbers of employees to leave their organizations due to their mental health’s impact on their ability to work.

We’ll also discuss the many forms mental health issues take, from organic to environmental, (think nature versus nuture), as well as misunderstandings about mental health and the stigma attached to seeking help.

 


 

Empathy & Leadership

Empathy has long been considered a critical component for effective leadership, but these days it seems to be getting more attention, taking on a new level of meaning and priority. In fact, a new study by EY finds empathy not only impacts productivity and job satisfaction, but also an employee’s mental health. But is that simply asking too much of leaders and managers? Can they be empathetic while making tough decisions? In this Perspectives of a Woman CEO podcast, join host David Gee, as he discusses the hot topic of empathy and leadership with EPG Brand Acceleration CEO Marion Minor.

 


 

Lessons From The Pandemic

Podbean, iTunes, Spotify
The global pandemic upended all of our lives. It changed the way we work, where and how we work in many cases, and even the way we view work. Is there anything we can learn from the experience?

Join CEO Marion Minor and host David Gee for this episode of In My Experience, Perspectives of a Woman CEO, as they discuss Marion’s three big takeaways. For her she says they can be grouped into the following categories: Business – The old rules don’t apply, in fact there are no rules. Leadership – In times of uncertainty, your management style has to change. Professional relationships – Global trauma is a great equalizer when interacting and relating with others.
