About the Event

The role of Human Resource Professionals within an organization continues to evolve and with it, a shifting perspective on the expectations placed on HR when it comes to workplace mental health. Not only that, but a muddiness in accountability and responsibility between HR and the Business might have increased tensions between yourself and the very partners you’re meant to be supporting.

Building relationships and connecting with others on interpersonal levels, while staying the within moral and legal frameworks, is how you will encourage people to thrive, leading to greater job satisfaction and increased value to the bottom line. But that can feel scary, awkward, and hard. Many of us have not yet been taught the skills to navigate mental health in the workplace, barely scratching the surface of reducing the stigma of mental health at work.

Delivered by certified Psychological Health & Safety Advisors, this certificate program will build your skills so you can feel confident engaging in mental health conversations in the workplace, giving you the language, knowledge and confidence to connect with your team, your Business and your Executive and offer support in ways that meet them where they’re at and is good for your organization.

About the Speaker

Lindsay Recknell and the team at Paradigm Corporate Wellness aim to normalize conversations about mental health in the workplace and raise mental health maturity so all team members can thrive. There’s been a gap in our education as HR professionals and leaders, something we’ve been missing that’s held us back from being as successful as we could be in really showing up as our best selves in our careers. The evolution of leadership training over the past 20 years or so has put more of a focus on work/life balance, innovation and looking at performance from different perspectives but the policies, governance and really, the way we approach our work hasn’t kept up to the pretty words we hear about what to do.

The signature program offered by Paradigm Corporate wellness, “Mental Health Skills Training Certificate”, is here to help with that. Over the course of 21 hours, you will learn the mental health skills you need to thrive at work. We’re going to focus on you as a HR professional, on your mental health, and give you the ideas, tactics and strategies you can use to model out loud what you’ve learned which will show your people how they too can take care of their mental health, which leads to more flourishing, more productivity and ultimately healthier workplaces and communities.
