Presentation description
Today’s managers operate in an environment characterized by increased responsibilities, often competing expectations, and increasingly complex human situations. Between managing performance, supporting teams, and making difficult decisions, their role is among the most demanding within an organization. Recent data show that more than one in three managers experiences a high level of psychological distress, while a significant proportion report low levels of well-being or symptoms of burnout.
Drawing on more than 80 scientific references and reports, this conference provides an in-depth examination of the mental health challenges associated with the managerial role. It highlights the key risk factors, myths, and pitfalls that can have a lasting impact on managers’ psychological well-being.
Available in two versions, “HR Professionals” and “Managers”, this conference offers practical strategies to help participants better manage the demands of leadership, strengthen their personal resources, and foster sustainable leadership practices that benefit their mental health, their teams, and their organization.
