Reshma Nandy’s Post

May is Mental Health Awareness Month (Post 3) Changing perceptions, fostering relationships, and building reputations are endeavors that rarely yield immediate results. They require extensive strategic planning, decisive action, and sustained effort over time. PR professionals must navigate the balance between short-term demands and long-term objectives, often making difficult decisions and executing strategies that benefit both their clients and stakeholders. However, achieving these goals is never straightforward and demands dedication and perseverance.

Happy World Mental Health Day! The theme for this year is “Mental Health At Work”. Organizations are vested with the responsibility to step up efforts to: 1. Prevent risks to mental health at work. 2. Promote well-being and protecting mental health at work. 3. Support personnel with mental health conditions. When implementing the Strategy, it is important to consider the following: 1. Everyone has a role to play. 2. It is not one size fits all. 3. System-wide coordination and support. 4. Integrating mental health and well-being into policies and practices. 5. Leadership support is crucial. 6. The role of managers is pivotal. 7. Data-informed decision-making. 8. Taking action to support mental health and well-being is possible. Above all, you need to understand that Your Health is Your Priority! #iamfolavincent #mentalhealthday

Happy #WorldMentalHealthDay! In the fast-paced world of PR, mental health is just as important as media deadlines. As PR professionals, we’re always juggling multiple projects, managing stress, and pushing through busy schedules. Remember to take a step back, prioritize self-care, and seek support when needed. Let’s create a culture that values mental well-being, in PR and beyond. #MentalHealthMatters #PRLife #SelfCareInPR

🛑 Two years ago, I made the most important decision of my life: I chose sobriety. 🛑 It wasn’t easy, but it’s been worth it every single day. Sobriety gave me clarity, purpose, and a drive to help others avoid the path I walked. Now, I help businesses support their teams with the tools and understanding to handle stress, addiction, and mental health challenges. My workshops are built on three core pillars: 💬 Openness: Breaking down barriers to honest conversations. 📚 Education: Teaching practical strategies for healthier coping. 🤝 Support: Empowering leaders and employees to lean on each other. Because when teams feel supported, they thrive. And when businesses invest in their people, everyone wins. If this resonates with you, let’s connect. Together, we can build workplaces where everyone feels empowered to show up as their best selves. #MentalHealthMatters #WorkplaceCulture #AddictionRecovery

May is Mental Health Awareness Month here in the United States. Over the years, we've seen the direct impact strong managers can have on the overall health of their teams and employees. We share six best practices leaders can adopt this month — and all year long — to foster inclusivity, collaboration, and positivity on the job. #mentalhealth #inclusiveleadership #leadershipdevelopment https://hubs.ly/Q02wFWCQ0

Today is World Mental Health Day and I would like to use this post to raise more awareness for #MentalHealth especially in the workplace. This is also this year’s theme set by the World Federation of Mental Health – and a very important one. For this occasion, we have initiated a Mental Health Week at Continental starting today and will use the opportunity to take a look at the health of our colleagues and our health services. An important part available at many locations worldwide is our Employee Assistance Program (EAP) where employees and close relatives can find the support needed – anonymously, confidentially and free of charge. In addition, our Group Health colleagues offer numerous content and webinars on different health topics for all employees worldwide, e.g. webinars on "Stress Control" or on "Healthy Leadership in Transformation Processes”. Especially in these challenging times our industry and company is currently going through, it is even more important to take care of ourselves and maintain the trust in our own abilities. This is a good basis to also deal with challenging situations. So, I would like to invite you to take today’s World Mental Health Day to reserve some time for yourself and your health! #StayHealthy

As you may already be aware, today is World Mental Health Day 🧠 And in the PR and marketing world, everything is always about meeting deadlines and maintaining relationships, but we rarely take time to maintain ourselves. There are so many fantastic organisations out there such as Mind, who already provide fantastic resources and information when it comes to workplace mental health. But what can we do as an industry to help drive a more positive change? Check out my thoughts below 👇 #WorldMentalHealthDay #PR #Marketing

Today, as we acknowledge #WorldMentalHealthDay, at the end of this day, I am reminded of how crucial it is to work in an environment that values not just performance, but the well-being of every individual. Over the past few days, I’ve had my own share of challenges, but I am incredibly grateful to be part of an organization like Gartner, where mental health is not just a topic for discussion, but a core value reflected in the support systems we have in place. As we are hearing incidents around us, in a fast-paced corporate world, it’s easy to overlook the human side of work. But having leaders who truly listen, understand, and take action reinforces how important it is to foster a culture where mental health is prioritized. I have been humbled today to realise, once again, that it's okay to ask for help instead of handling everything on your own. And this is a reminder to everyone else too. It’s okay to take a step back when needed. And most importantly, it’s okay to lean on those who support you. #worldmentalhealthday #prioritizingwellbeing

As May draws to a close, so does #MentalHealthAwarenessMonth — a time that has profoundly underscored the importance of mental well-being and the need for ongoing support, understanding, and empathy in our communities, especially in our workplaces. Reflecting on this journey, I vividly remember key experiences that have shaped my perspective on the support we must build for future generations. As someone who suffers from clinical anxiety, I've always been open about my struggles. Unfortunately, I didn't receive the support I needed when I expressed my challenges to senior leaders and HR. Instead, my direct manager once labeled me as "mentally ill" during a discussion. This lack of understanding and empathy led me to leave that firm, but it also fueled my determination to #advocate for better #mentalhealthsupport. To those dealing with similar issues, please know that you are not alone. Reaching out for help is a sign of strength, not weakness! 🤝 Let's continue to check in on our loved ones, friends and colleagues. A simple "How are you?" can make a world of difference. We must keep working to dismantle the stigma around mental health. Open dialogues and supportive environments are crucial for those who may be struggling. If you are suffering, please connect! There is strength in solidarity and shared experiences. Let's keep the momentum going and continue to foster a culture of mental health awareness and support throughout the year. Together, we will make a difference 🌟 #MentalHealthAwarenessMonth #MentalHealthMatters #SelfCare #EndTheStigma #SupportEachOther #WellBeing
