Leveraging the World\u2019s Largest Untapped Mental Health Resource: People<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In today\u2019s modern workplace, mental health problems have become the leading cause of disability claims, accounting for 70% of workplace disability management costs in Canada. St\u00e9phane knows the toll mental health problems can take on individuals and workplaces firsthand. Traditionally, mental health difficulties in the workplaces have been principally viewed through two lenses: the performance lens and the clinical one. Clinicians treat symptoms and leaders manage behaviours. Anchored in decades of experience in improving the way large public- and private-sector organizations support their employees, Grenier offers his audiences pragmatic advice designed to support workplaces in developing corporate cultures of open, non-stigmatizing approaches to mental health and well-being. Blending lived accounts, riveting corporate case studies, leading-edge research and passionate arguments that the status quo is no longer acceptable in the field of workplace mental health, St\u00e9phane makes us ask ourselves, how did we miss the obvious? How did we miss our people?<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

When it co<\/span>mes to mental health, St\u00e9phane Grenier <\/span>walks the talk<\/span>. He was appointed to the Order of Canada and a<\/span>warded an honorary Doctor of Laws degree by the University of Guelph and Humber College for his contributions to the field of <\/span>workplace mental health. St\u00e9phane\u2019s riveting <\/span>keynotes <\/span>are not only thought-provoking, but also lead to tangible action and sustainable change for those leaders who are prepared to rethink how they support their people. His autobiography, <\/span>After the War: Surviving PTSD and C<\/span>hanging Mental Health Culture<\/span>, tells his story from the day he landed in the midst of the Rwandan genocide, through his journey of changin<\/span>g mental health culture in the Canadian military, developing national Guidelines for Peer Support with the Mental Health Commission of Canada, all the way to creating Mental Health Innovations (MHI); a consultancy that leads innovative and sustainable change in organizations to enhance the mental health of their people. Today, he and his business partners, along with countless associates, develop <\/span>non-clinical mental health interventions <\/span>as a complement to traditional clinical care for private and public sector organizations, as well as for provincial healthcare systems.
