One of a series of webinars hosted by the Australian Men's Health Forum to mark the intersection between Inclusion at Work Week and International Men's Day.
In this webinar, CEO of the Australian Men’s Health Forum Glen Poole shares the key tips and learnings from the Know Your Man Facts toolkit – How to Help a Mate Doing It Tough and outlines how it can be applied in workplace settings.
The public conversation around men's mental health tells us that "men don't talk" and "men don't get help". Yet decades of experience working with men tells us that men do talk with you know how to start the conversation. Building workplace communities that are better equipped to support men with mental health struggles, is one way to make workplaces more inclusive for men of all backgrounds.
If you want to know how to engage men in mental health conversations in workplace settings, then our simple guide to helping a workmate doing it tough is for you. Designed by men's health workers, our simple yet effective guide covers: The signs that a workmate may be doing it tough / how to prepare for a meaningful conversation with a workmate / what to say and how to listen /how to build a plan that makes a difference / Ways to connect a workmate to the help he needs.
