Learn how to create a mentally healthy workplace for your employees in this hands-on workshop!

You care about your team’s mental health. You see the stress, the burnout, the disengagement. You want to help, but where do you start?

You’ve offered the traditional mental health benefits, but hardly anyone uses them. Your managers want to be supportive, but they don’t know the right thing to say. Your employees are overwhelmed, but so are you — because it feels impossible to create real change without massive budgets or endless policies.

Here’s the thing: Mental health isn’t just an employee perk — it’s good for business.

Companies that invest in real mental health support see:

  • 23% higher profitability
  • Lower turnover & recruitment costs
  • Increased productivity & innovation

But despite the numbers, most companies still aren’t doing enough. Not because they don’t care — but because they don’t know how to turn good intentions into action.

In this detailed workshop, you’ll leave with clear, real-world strategies you can apply immediately — without the confusion, the feeling of overwhelm, or wasted investment. 

What You'll Learn

  • The State of Workplace Mental Health: What’s happening in today’s workforce and why mental health can’t be ignored.
  • The Business Case for Mental Health: How poor mental health impacts turnover, engagement, and your bottom line.
  • What Makes a Workplace Mentally Healthy?: The 4 core pillars of a workplace that truly supports its people.
  • Practical Steps You Can Take Now: Simple, high-impact strategies to create a mentally healthy culture — without a massive budget.

Who Should Attend?

This workshop is designed for:

  • HR professionals & leaders looking to enhance mental health support.
  • Executives & business owners who want to attract and retain top talent.
  • Managers & people leaders who want to create a culture of well-being.
