Bob Greene is a fellow with the American Academy of experts in traumatic stress. He says trauma can be showing up in all sorts of places, and we don't recognize it as trauma. Greene: I want to talk about mental health in the places that we work; how to recognize something's not right here. And then let's talk about our crazy CEOs. Does that sound like a good path?
If you read the headlines, you know our mental health is precious. But you also know it’s in jeopardy.
As business leaders, what can we do? Plenty.
Today on the podcast, we welcome Dr. Lee Norton, a clinical social worker and trauma expert. She helps us understand the role mental health plays at work. What is trauma and how does it show up in our employees? What do you do if you work for someone who lacks empathy? How can you protect your own mental health and look out for the people around you, too?
It’s a timely conversation with loads of insight for business leaders who want to create a safe and nurturing work environment.
