New tools to make transitions more human and high-performing
Reorganizations, new software, strategic shifts… Transformations are accelerating within organizations. But behind every change, there are first and foremost people who adapt, ask questions, and sometimes burn out.
According to a survey of more than 50,000 employees, periods of change significantly increase the risks of fatigue, anxiety, sleep disturbances and even depressive symptoms.
These effects are very real, but they are not inevitable. With the right approach, change can become a lever for mental health, engagement and innovation.
It is with this in mind that Global-Watch has developed the toolkit “Preserving mental health in times of change,” a set of 15 practical tools based on 74 scientific references, to help HR teams, managers and employees anticipate, support and consolidate transformations without compromising psychological well-being.

Practical tools that adapt to your reality
Designed for managers, HR teams and employees, the “Preserving mental health in times of change” toolkit can be used in a modular way, depending on needs and how far along you are in your transformation project.
Step 1: Anticipate change to better identify areas of vulnerability
Before any transformation, it is essential to understand its human impact.
The first tools in the toolkit help assess psychosocial risks, identify tension points and ask the right questions from the outset.
They lay the foundations for a clear-sighted, human and sustainable transformation.
Step 2: Protect mental health during the transition
Once change is underway, communication, transparency and support become essential.
The tools dedicated to HR and managers help prevent psychological distress, maintain trust and foster clear communication.
They also help anticipate resistance and strengthen organizational fairness, ensuring an inclusive and sustainable transformation.
Step 3: Supporting the supporters
Those who accompany change also need support.
The toolkit includes resources to strengthen solidarity, kindness and team cohesion.
These tools promote mutual support, prevent burnout and help preserve personal balance, turning change into a lever for collective resilience.
Step 4: Learn from change to better prepare for the future
Every transformation is a source of learning.
The tools in this final step offer a structured framework to analyze the human effects of change, share lived experiences and identify avenues for improvement.
They strengthen collective memory and a culture of continuous improvement — two pillars of a healthy, learning organization.
