Men’s mental health matters—and it always has. Now that Movember has wrapped up, it’s important to remember that the conversation about men’s mental health doesn’t stop with November. For too long, men have been pressured to “man up,” stay silent, and carry their struggles alone. But silence doesn’t heal—it isolates. My dad’s story is a powerful reminder of this. His mental health struggles, left unsupported, drove him to the bottle as a way to cope. He worked incredibly hard as the CTO at AXA (I had no idea what that actually meant growing up!), but like so many men, he was fighting invisible battles beneath the surface. He doesn’t mind me sharing this—he’s retired now, with no career pressures (or fear of shaming!), and has always believed in using his story to help others. He’s taught me and my sisters to own our stories and show up as our authentic selves. I couldn’t be prouder of him for owning his (Mates in Mind). If initiatives like Movember had existed in the 90s, maybe things would’ve been different. Maybe the stigma around men seeking help wouldn’t have been so strong. Maybe he would’ve had access to the support he needed. This is why Movember is so important—not for the moustaches, but for the conversations they spark. Kudos to Josh Carhart👇, whose ginger genetics made his Movember attempt a bit… underwhelming 😂. But it’s not about the facial hair—it’s about shining a light to break the stigma, support men, and remind them that it’s okay to talk, to ask for help, and to admit they’re struggling. If you’re reading this and struggling, know this: reaching out for help isn’t weakness—it’s strength.

Really happy to see this post. This fantastic enterprise is one of four cases informing a forthcoming article in California Management Review , where jointly with Felipe Massa, Sara Beckman, Maria Cristina Sousa, and Özge Kutun we explore alternative forms of organizing to chip away at today's deepest challenges. And there is also a teaching case study on Embassy village that is a useful pedagogical tool to get students to think about the elusive links between organizational design and institutional change -https://lnkd.in/euvrrFMu. Thanks to James Whittaker and Tim Heatley for giving us access to the team. Keep the good work!
