This week is Mental Health Awareness Week in the UK and the theme is on relationships. Building healthy relationships and connections both personally and professionally can have a significant impact on performance and our health.
And good mental health has a positive impact on business
- 70 million work days are lost each year due to mental health problems in the UK, costing employers approximately £2.4 billion per year
So the theme this week is the importance of relationships for leadership
'A leader without a great team, or without an excellent relationship with his team, will struggle to achieve greatness, as a leader cannot do everything themselves.' - Gordon Tredgold
