Build connection and reduce workplace loneliness (Online)
November 17 @ 2:00 pm - 3:30 pm AEDT
The second National Mental Health Monitor, released by Australians for Mental Health in April 2024, revealed a concerning rise in the number of Australians struggling with poor mental health and loneliness – workplaces, however, can play a vital role in addressing both, benefiting individuals, teams, and organisations alike.
What’s more, DCA’s Inclusion@Work Index consistently shows that inclusive environments are linked to employees feeling that work has a positive impact on their mental health.
At DCA’s next thought leading event, our CEO, Catherine Hunter, will be joined by leading experts to explore loneliness at work – what it looks like, why it matters, and how we can build the knowledge and skills to develop and maintain meaningful social connections at work.
Our guest speakers will include:
-
Chris Gambian (he/him), Executive Director for Australians for Mental Health
-
Dr Shea Fan (she/her), Associate Professor, Deakin Business School
-
Anna Sparkes (she/her), Chief People Officer, Gilbert + Tobin
-
Associate Professor Michelle Lim (she/her), CEO and Scientific Chair of Ending Loneliness Together
Who should attend: Leaders and employees who are either responsible for team wellbeing or culture, manage large teams, or have an interest in improving connection and reducing loneliness at work.
This event is hybrid and will also be available to attend at Gilbert + Tobin in Sydney. To join us in-person, please register here.
