Unlock Midlife Potential: Invest in Your Staff

Leap to Health offers tailor-made stress management resilience, health and wellbeing awareness courses designed for organisations which recognise the need to invest in the health and wellbeing of their staff. Amongst the courses available are those for midlife women who are seeking to optimise their performance despite the challenges they face.

{

Resilience is the ability to rebound from, and adjust easily to challenges or change.

The key words here are, ‘rebound’ and ‘adjust’. True resilience is not defined by pushing oneself relentlessly towards stress, and eventual burnout. Although we are all different, there still needs to be a growing awareness to do what is necessary to prevent debilitating stress and improve your mental health and wellness. The process can be facilitated by making available to staff the help, facilities and understanding they need.

Three Evidence-Based Benefits:

  1. According to a study carried out by CV Builder LiveCareer and published in Midlife Divide Report, 91% of women say they are more likely to stay with an employer who understands and makes provisions in the workplace which meets their midlife needs. This study clearly highlights the benefits of a health policy which is highlighted in management practices.
  2. Research findings by Hardy, C. et al, ‘What do working menopausal women want? A qualitative investigation into women’s perspectives on employer and line manager support’, 2024, portray highlights the treatment which midlife women receive by the leadership team. The report also indicates the kind of support which may or may not be helpful. “The menopause can be difficult for some women to deal with at work, partly due to the working environment” (Hardy, C. et al, 2024). Consequently, the results of the study have clear implications for employer-led health and safety.
  3. In their research, “Mitigating Workplace Burnout Through Transformational Leadership and Employee Participation in Recovery Experiences”, Pladdys, J. et al (2024) concluded that productivity and turnover rates significantly improved when senior management took an interest and actively participated in improving employee wellbeing.

I worked with Dr Sonia Russell on a virtual workshop titled 'The Virtues of Healthy Eating in Times Like These' as part of the Alumni Showcase series at University of Greenwich. This was a well-attended and received event. Sonia is a great speaker and led an engaging workshop which involved useful resources with tips about healthy eating. The workshop was followed by an interactive Q&A that allowed for a constructive discussion about attitudes to healthy eating. Sonia is a well-organised and charismatic person, and makes a great public speaker!
