Thank you once again for running the resilience session with the EQJ team yesterday. And for donating your time and expertise. The feedback has been so positive, this is really going to help us all personally and professionally.

I was amazed and encouraged by the feedback from our people after their joining in the recent process group sessions facilitated by Brian and Sharmeen. They told me that it was very cathartic, reassuring and empowering. It was not something our people could have imagined JLL could have achieved in being so open on mental health and wellbeing.

We are also grateful to hear from our people that the sessions led to them initiating a happy Friday catch up with a group of colleagues and friends who ever worked in the same team years ago. It’s indeed helping even more people as a result.

We truly appreciate the partnership with Brian and Sharmeen to celebrate the fact that the culture we have all contributed to building in our firm enabled us have such great sessions.

My team and I are grateful for the Smart Collaboration Accelerator training. It allowed us to reflect individually on our strengths, how they manifest in the work environment and how to manage our different tendencies. It also allowed us to work together as a team to better understand each other and how to be more inclusive, as well as to identify how to best use those strengths to communicate more effectively, make smarter decisions and deliver better results. It gave us a framework that we can use not only for opportunities but also for challenges we may face as a team. Overall, I think it has allowed us to be better ready for our future as a team!

Brian's teaching offers the whole spectrum of yoga instruction fromo relaxation and wellness to helping improve my flexibility. He's a soothing voice who helps to explain the ideas and philosophy behind the practice of yoga.

I've learnt many new things from him, from: eye exercises and different yoga breathing exercises to 20+ poses to open my stiff hips!

Psychological safety seems very important to consider as leaders within the organization. We all have a part to play. I most enjoyed exploring this area and what I can do to improve myself as a leader and the company culture.

The Psychological Safety workshop that Brian designed and delivered for the Habitat Hong Kong team, came at a critical time for our organisation and the positive outcomes were felt immediately. The workshop was a key component in our journey to build an inclusive and non-judgmental culture where everyone feels safe to grow, make mistakes and raise difficult questions. Brian opened our eyes to the inextricable link between workplace psychological safety and having clear expectations on what we are each and collectively accountable for. We had honest and open dialogues about what actions we would all like to take to build a culture we are all proud of. We considered ways to be more supportive of each other, have clearer risk evaluation processes, and how to naturally integrate difficult conversations and risk management into our regular meetings. We are deeply grateful for Brian’s leadership and guidance and would highly recommend Whole Business Wellness' services for any organisation looking to prioritise their people and employee experience in the pursuit of their purpose.

The role of Boards in Mental Health

September 16, 2022

How do we get beyond “fixing the people” to “fixing the system”? As Desmond Tutu observed “at some point we have to stop pulling people out of the river and go upstream to find out why they keep falling in”. That takes us to leadership, culture, capabilities and the role of the Board as guardian of all these things. Burnout has to be a business priority, with a clear plan that addresses the root causes, supported by resources and KPIs for the Board and executives to ensure the hard work can and will be done for everyone’s benefit, including business performance.
