Lindsay Recknell and I participate in the "podcast exchange program and mutual admiration society" by appearing as guests on each other's shows. :-)
As President and CEO of Mental Health in Minutes, Lindsay brings a wealth of expertise to our show, sharing her insights into the innerworkings of employees and leaders in the workplace. Our focus is on departments often perceived to lack emotional needs, specifically exploring the IT departments.
We kick off our discussion with a few of the learnings from a 2022 study that demonstrated the power of minor changes from leaders on the overall wellbeing of their teams. It turns out, when managers do something as simple as allowing employees more control over their work schedules decreased overall negativity on the team. Go figure!
