Join us during Mental Health Week for a forum discussing the impacts of stress, burnout, and mental health on executives and COOs in financial services. As leaders in your organisations, you manage high-pressure environments and make critical decisions with far-reaching consequences. The demands of your role can lead to burnout and mental health challenges, but if you are cognisant of the science surrounding stress and productivity, you can capitalise on this knowledge to augment the quality and quantity of your work output.

Our expert panel will provide insights into effective stress management and burnout prevention strategies, as well as the latest research and best practices in mental health. You will also have the opportunity to connect with other professionals facing similar challenges.

Prioritise your mental health and well-being by attending this important event. We look forward to seeing you there!
