It’s a reality that more employees are discussing their mental
health in the workplace. And proactive leaders can serve their
teams better by listening and responding. At the same time,
managers can’t play the role of a therapist or the HR department.
Counseling psychologist Kiran Bhatti and University of Cambridge
leadership professor Thomas Roulet argue that following the basic
practice of cognitive behavioral therapy can serve managers well.
The researchers explain the mental-health first-aid tool, how
managers can help employees address emotional distress and negative
behavioral patterns, and how that can strengthen the work culture
and ultimately the business. Bhatti and Roulet wrote the HBR
article, “Helping an Employee in Distress.”
