🙏 I am incredibly grateful for Merck Healthcare's invitation to take the floor and lead a workshop on how to equip their leaders to better support employees facing a cancer diagnosis ! 🎗️ 🎯 The session provided practical tools for handling with empathy and clarity the often sensitive conversations about health. This training reinforced Merck's responsibility as a leading oncology company to create a safe and supportive environment where employees can thrive, regardless of their personal challenges. 💪 This is an important milestone that embodies Merck's values of care and inclusion in the workplace, and will lead to more concrete actions to help employees meet life's toughest challenges. 🙏 so many special thanks to Mihaela Militaru who is a true support to my mission since day 1 and Hazel Moran for your kind words. Thank you to the Merck Team leaders team for their incredible attention on the matter. I am looking forward to build more with you ! Thank you Terri Stewart for also helping a lot putting this together (sorry, for not naming everyone) They say "once step at the time", this felt like a gigantic one ! #employeewellbeing #carewithpurpose #WorkplaceInclusion #disabilitymanagement #PatientEmpowerment
At Merck Healthcare supporting our people through life’s toughest challenges is at the core of who we are. We were honored to welcome cancer survivor and onco-coach Magali Mertens de Wilmars, who led an impactful session equipping our leaders with practical tools to support employees facing a cancer diagnosis. Magali’s insights and strategies for approaching sensitive health conversations with empathy and clarity were invaluable. As Hazel Moran, Head of Global Patient Insights and Advocacy, highlights, our commitment goes beyond care—it’s about fostering a recovery-forward workplace where everyone feels seen, heard, and supported. Together, we’re creating an environment where wellbeing and compassion lead the way. #AsOneForPatients #EmployeeWellbeing #CareWithPurpose
