Burnout is one of the leading causes of employees leaving the workplace through the Great Resignation, yet it can be a challenging issue for organizations to address. This is because burnout is complex and requires flexible solutions. As a mental health expert, I will teach tangible, research-based tools for coping with burnout, while shedding light on how organizations can build in systemic supports as well. In this talk, I will: -Delve into the dimensions of burnout -Delineate systemic and individual factors contributing to burnout -Empower leaders and teams to employ interventions to eliminate burnout

Low trust within teams at work creates workplace stress, which according to research from the Harvard Business Review, leads to an increase of almost 50% voluntary turnover. Fostering psychological safety and trust is key to well-being at work, and it requires leaders to develop the skill set to connect and adapt to unique team needs. This talk will: -Examine the importance of trust in workplace culture -Outline factors that contribute to and detract from psychological safety at work -Teach strategies for establishing and repairing trust within organizations

More than ever, employees want to connect with and know their leaders. They need to feel supported within the workplace in order to achieve their highest potential, and this requires persistent relationship building. In addition, employees and leaders bring their past and present experiences into work. Leaders must become aware of their own responses while also navigating employee responses. This can be challenging unless leaders develop the skills for attuning to and responding to the needs of their teams. In this talk, I will: -Explore how past events impact both the leader and the employee's experience in the present day -Address how to identify and support employees who are struggling -Catalyze the creation of connected, attuned workplaces through skill development
