END THE WAVE

There is a Tsunami of Workplace Wellness Challenges.
A must attend open and honest workshop with a totally new perspective.

There is a cost to the individual and their personal suffering; it is most important, requiring care and attention.
It is time to pay attention to the business cost as well, and those costs are soaring! Why not optimize?

The Mental Health Commission of Canada, report more than 30% of disability claims and 70% of disability costs are attributed to mental illness.”
“According to the 2006 Global Business & Economic Roundtable on Mental Health, in Canada 35 million workdays are lost each year to anxiety and depression, with 500,000 Canadians missing work each day due to mental health issues”.

As a manager you deal with employees facing hurdles to achieving a healthy life-balance of wellness. Aside from personal and family impacts, the business impacts of increasing emotional un-wellness includes lower efficiency, increased cost and reduced productivity.

Let’s stop this wave.

We have enough evidence that just giving people time off doesn’t seem to be reducing the overall issue. The problem just doesn’t seem to go away. There is a new perspective Sharon Villars of Bootstraps Lifeskills is introducing on how to change this stress in the workplace and support your employees. Sharon leads a powerful thought-changing session on re-directing the wave of increased pressure, stress and anxiety your employees bring to work.

Business Owners, Human Resources Managers and Team Leaders who attend this workshop will embrace real data, support and ideas of how to stop this ever growing tsunami. You will be able to have your office become a place of higher productivity and efficiency with the frustration of continually working against a wave of other’s personal issues.
After year of corporate experience Sharon tells it like it is. You can rely on her to provide honest and open training and education. The session is direct and respectful of the critical situation in our work culture.
