“It’s ok, not to be ok”

In our latest episode we chat to Tom Ruijs and we unpack mental health, wellbeing and high-performance cultures which all have one thing in common, psychological safety.

Tom Ruijs is an Organisational Psychologist and Senior Consultant with AP Psychology.

This episode has so many nuggets of gold, so grab a pen and paper.

Nuggets include...

• The simple act of 'noticing' as a leader and being intentional and purposeful in your support
  
• Creating the space and safety for people to talk about mental illness
  
• Considering job design in contact centres to improve mental health
  
• Practical strategies on how you can identify and support yourself and your team
  
• The role of psychological safety in creating a high-performance culture
