Mental health is one of the defining workplace issues of our time. Beyond the personal impact on employees, poor workplace mental health carries major consequences for productivity, retention, and risk management. At the same time, businesses that invest in creating healthy, safe, and supportive environments see stronger performance, better cultures, and more resilient teams.

This Business in Focus event will give leaders the knowledge and practical tools to navigate this challenge with confidence.

Keynote speaker Tarnya Davis, Director and Clinical Psychologist at NewPsych, will share evidence-based insights and actionable strategies for building mentally healthy workplaces. Drawing on decades of clinical and organisational expertise, Tarnya will cover:
