How to Have Supportive Conversations

What’s covered?

Presented by Anthony Gibbs (CEO, Sentis)

We find ourselves in unprecedented times. The uncertainty created by current events, including COVID-19, has led to increased stress, distraction and anxiety in the workplace. For some, this is in addition to the recent devastations of drought, fire and flood. But what happens when workers find their stress compounding and fail to recognise it?

As a leader, it’s important to recognise when a worker may need to access support. This webinar will provide a framework to help leaders understand the difference between a team member thriving and surviving—and if they are surviving, whether they’re simply going through a bad patch or if they require extra support to manage a mental health issue or illness.

Session outcomes:

• • Understand a framework to recognise the difference between team members who thrive or survive during stress and crisis
  • Gain insights around the dos and don’ts of supportive conversations
  • Learn practical tools for effective conversations that guide team members towards support
