61. What the 6th MAD World Summit Reveals About the Future of Mental Health at Work

We’re bringing you this episode in collaboration with the MAD World Summit and Make a Difference Media (www.makeadifference.media), the all year around media channel that supports both MAD World and its sister event The Watercooler, which regular listeners will remember us attending in April 2023 (see Episode 37!)

We had the privilege of being the official podcast for the 6th MAD World Summit, where we engaged with numerous business leaders, campaigners, and thought leaders. Through these conversations, we've identified six major trends that are reshaping the landscape of mental health in the workplace.

Join the conversation as we explore:

• Allyship in Action
• Healing from Trauma
• Reasonable Adjustments for All
• Emotional Literacy
• Individual Well-being
• Anger in the Workplace
