Five Star Corporate Panel for Angst!
Want to know what Microsoft, Deloitte, the EAP Association, SHRM-SCP and the Houston Texans have in common? Their leaders all understand that encouraging employees to engage with their mental health benefits and stay happy, healthy and productive, comes through talking openly. Film is a powerful, low-stress way to encourage people to start talking, and these leaders will join us after our Angst screening on December 3rd to dig into into how to normalize the conversation, keep it going, and make sure that employees make full use of their EAP. Each panelist has a wealth of information to share, this is definitely not one to miss. Pass it on and let’s keep talking!
If last week’s article in Fortune Magazine doesn’t convince you of the importance of leaders talking openly about mental health, maybe this will:
“We’ve been working at HPE to raise awareness about real life challenges like anxiety and depression, and to help people know they’re not alone and it’s OK to get help. As a way to spark the dialogue, we made the documentary Angst available to our employees around the world. We’ve heard tremendous feedback and stories from many who benefited from watching the film and sharing it with their families.”
