The pandemic has changed many things, among them the state of mental health in the workplace. Things were not perfect before the pandemic, there were definitely stresses and people under pressure, but lockdowns and having to manage a different way definitely took their toll. We are now at a different point but we are still struggling to figure out the best ways to work and that is creating its kinds of stress – and people are still struggling. To talk about how mental health has changed over the past years, Linda Nazareth s joined on this episode by  Bernie Wong, Principal and Senior Manager at Mind Share Partners which is a non-profit that is focussed on workplace mental health. Mindshare has done surveys on how workplace mental health has changed over the past few years and their findings are food for thought.
