Transforming Workplaces: The Key to Employee Emotional Health with Dr. Shahana Alibhai

As businesses, we often focus on the tangible and the measurable. We understand metrics like labour turnover, employee productivity, among others. But metrics such as these are systems to deeper challenges.

🛎 In this episode, Marc sits down with Dr. Shahana Alibhai, a renowned family physician and mental health advocate. We're tackling a silent yet colossal challenge that haunts businesses across the globe: the overlooked emotional wellbeing of employees.

Today, we dive into the intangible yet invaluable aspect of emotional health, uncovering strategies to not just avert the impending flood but to foster an environment where every drip of emotional challenge is acknowledged, understood, and addressed.
