Leading a Positive Workplace Culture Supports Mental Health

The Principal Mental Health and Wellbeing program coached school leaders to implement mindfulness meditation techniques and practices for managing work-related factors that contribute to stress. It resulted in improved wellbeing outcomes for leaders, and increased awareness of their capacity to support and manage mental health and wellbeing within the workplace. They reported feeling more calm, more resilient, increased focus, reduced stress, improved relationships, and reduced burnout.
