Today our special guest is Steven Worral – MD of Microsoft Australia and Chair of the Corporate Mental Health Alliance (CMHA).  

He’s shared with us his approach to mental health, for himself and his employees, throughout Australia and New Zealand, and also via the CMHA, representing the interests of 13m working Australians.

- How a tech company manages with the stresses that tech itself can bring! 

- The interaction of work and personal life, and how each impacts the other 

- How to ensure psychological safety is engendered and leaders adequately prepared 

- How to ensure that healthy habits and practices are actually acted upon on a daily basis, especially post pandemic 

- Some apps and tools used to help with mental wellbeing 

- Ways to change the stigma around mental health that still exists

 - The role the CMHA is playing
