Ignoring mental health is costing Australian businesses $48.9 billion per year in lost productivity according to recent research.

As a leader, how do you create an environment that both supports mental wellbeing and drives commercial performance? What are your responsibilities to protect your staff and your business? How can you increase your organisation’s awareness to better support your team?

I’d like to invite you to spend a morning with three industry leaders who will share their insights and experiences on this topic, in a facilitated conversation led by 2020 Chair Peter Griffith.
