Let’s be real. The need to eliminate the stigma surrounding mental health awareness has reached a critical moment. There’s a lot of work to be done for us to move beyond taboos.

We’ve all been through one traumatic life experience after another for over two years now. Workers everywhere are feeling unprecedented levels of stress, burnout, and uncertainty.

There is a disconnect between leaders’ and employee perceptions about the hybrid workplace and it could be hurting your people—and your business.

After nearly two years of changes that arrived with the pandemic, along with political and social unrest, HR leaders continue to work against all odds to support employee well-being.

We live in a time of disorder. We all feel the rumblings: an earthquake of societal and economic upheaval challenging institutions, governments, business, the environment.

Are we turning a corner? Employee well-being and employer support showing signs of improvement.

The last two years have taught every business and HR leader the importance of resilience—the ability to operate under stress, adapt to change, and even thrive under uncertain conditions.

The workforce confronted constant changes in 2021, including navigating return to site and hybrid models, the rise of variants and vaccine mandates, and global disruptions in the supply chain.

We’re no longer in the depths of a pandemic that gave rise to the “great resignation,” driving burnout to reach all-time highs.

I think it is safe to say workforce resilience is not only having a moment—the concept has finally come into its own.

As questions of requiring vaccinations to return to site, and hybrid work models are top of mind and will be well into 2022, most employers are far from breathing a sigh of relief.

Over 300 HR leaders attended meQuilibrium’s second annual conference, “Resilience 2021”.
