☘️ Your manager has more impact on your well-being than your therapist—and that’s a big responsibility. On this Mental Health Day, let’s recognize the power of leadership in shaping workplace wellness. Don’ts: ❌ Don’t micromanage or create unnecessary pressure—it can fuel stress and anxiety. ❌ Don’t ignore emotional cues or assume your team is fine without checking in. ❌ Don’t blur boundaries—respect your team’s time and space, especially outside of work hours. Dos: ✅ Do foster a supportive environment with regular, open communication. ✅ Do ask questions that go beyond tasks: "How are you really doing?" ✅ Do encourage a healthy work-life balance by leading with empathy and promoting breaks. ✨ Remember, small actions can have a big impact. Your leadership can either support well-being or contribute to burnout. Choose wisely. #WorldMentalHealthDay #SelfCare #MentalHealthMatters #MentalHealthAwareness
