Mental health in the workplace requires more than standalone programs—it demands a systemic shift in culture, leadership engagement, and sustained commitment. In this discussion, we will explore how organizations can embed mental well-being into their culture, from early awareness efforts to comprehensive strategies. Additionally, we will examine the critical role of workplace change and its impact on employee mental health, highlighting how different types of change—such as organizational restructuring—can shape well-being outcomes. Attendees will gain insights into effectively advocating for mental health initiatives, tailoring interventions to support employees during transitions, and avoiding "carewashing" in times of uncertainty. Through real-world examples and lessons from global programs, this session will equip leaders with actionable strategies to foster resilient, supportive workplace environments where employees can thrive.
