    Description:

    Attention leaders in high-stress industries: Are your employees experiencing high degrees of workplace stress? Are they facing adversities or exposed to traumatic events? Employees in public safety, health care, the military, social services, legal services and many other professions face situations that have the potential to cause psychological injuries. These employees have aptly been described as trauma-exposed professionals. 

    It is not just critical incidents that can cause post-traumatic stress injuries. Accumulated exposure to critical incidents and organizational stressors can affect employees’ health and result in medical leaves, retention difficulties and a host of other personal and organizational challenges. Unsupportive organizational cultures and poor leadership can contribute significantly to the severity of the injuries and their consequences.

    On Thursday, October 24 at 1 p.m. (ET), join us for this free 60-minute webinar that will offer information and resources for leaders of trauma-exposed professionals. In this session, led by Jana Raver, Professor of Organizational Behaviour at Smith School of Business, and Megan McElheran, Clinical Psychologist and Chief Executive Officer of Wayfound Mental Health Group, you’ll discover how to proactively prevent psychological injuries and create workplace cultures that support the extremely difficult work these professionals accomplish.
