The Elephant in the Room: Understanding Grief in the Workplace
Originally aired May 12, 2020
Grief is more than death or divorce. It’s pet loss, moving, and retirement, as well as intangible losses such as loss of independence, mobility, community, and agency. It’s all the changes due to a pandemic, change in daily routine, decreased feelings of safety and an overwhelming sense of uncertainty. You may not realize how grief impacts you and your colleagues. Embracing grief as it comes up will not only strengthen you personally, but also your team. Join WELCOA COO Sara Martin and Grief educator, Ilana Shapiro Yahdav, to discuss how grief manifests in the workplace and tools to heal.
