One in four employees is seriously mentally distressed — and it's rarely about the person; it's about the workplace itself!
This conversation dives into why workplace mental health is quietly collapsing, the hidden cost of untrained managers, and the simple systems — from tracked airtime to two-minute check-ins — that can turn a toxic culture around.
We discussed:
◼ Why depression rates tripled during the pandemic and never came back down
◼ How one Gallup number predicts 70% of your team's engagement
◼ The two simple questions that instantly rebuild trust with your team
◼ Why fixing individuals is solving for the completely wrong problem
◼ How one CEO's 30,000 handwritten notes turned a failing company around
