Our guest speaker this month will be Zoryna O’Donnell of L&M Plus Consulting who will be talking about building resilience to stress. 

Stress in the workplace is one of the major contributing factors in poor mental health which has enormous personal and socio-economic cost. This includes a large annual cost to employers of between £33 billion and £42 billion with over half of the cost coming from presenteeism (when individuals are less productive due to poor mental health in work) and additional costs from sickness absence and staff turnover. Yet there are many simple and cost-effective interventions that employers can use to help employees deal with stress, improve their mental resilience and performance. Zoryna will share with you insights into these interventions and useful tips and techniques – some of which you will have a chance to experience during her presentation.
