I have some great tips now of how to bring some changes to our organisation to support mental health.
I recently had the pleasure of attending a two day course on “Wellness in the Workplace” facilitated by Louise, who possesses a unique blend of knowledge, skills and passion for promoting wellness in the workplace. Throughout the course, Louise demonstrated a remarkable ability to engage with participants through an interactive learning style, coupled with practical insights and real-life examples. Thank you Louise.
Louise was very easy to listen to. Her tone and presentation style were approachable and relatable. Louise’s talk was the best work function that I have attended in 30 years. I was engaged from start to finish, I usually lose concentration during talks/seminars, but I found Louise’s explanation on how to identify stress etc. very interesting. I went home in a better mood from attending this talk. It really has opened my eyes in relation to mental health. Tips that Louise has shared will help me in the future. A big thank you for coming to Sulzer Pumps.
