Your staff, in particular, will look to you for leadership, guidance and support. Whether or not your workplace currently sees mental health as a priority, there are many things you can do as a manager to contribute.

Prioritising mental health
Provide mental health education for all levels of staff to raise awareness, increase understanding and encourage open discussion.

Trusting, fair and respectful culture
Provide employees at all levels with skills to interact with honesty and respect with colleagues and customers, clients and the public.
