Hopebeat Weekly: November 1, 2023

How hopeful is your workplace? Did you know you can measure hope? That it is a protective factor for anxiety and depression, so a unique approach to workplace mental health? 

We are now working to measure and improve your company’s levels of hope through keynotes, leadership training, and management courses. We also have a new 90-minute Hopeful Mindsets in the Workplace course, which you can take alone, with your colleagues, or ask your company to license.

Kathryn recently trained School Health Corporation, an incredible company helping kids around the US get the healthcare supplies they need.

Hope is teachable and serves as a protective factor against anxiety and depression. Did you know depression is the single biggest cost to your workforce? Check out this depression cost calculator.

Higher levels of Hope have been shown to:

• Improve workplace productivity by 14%, surpassing productivity based on intelligence, optimism, and self-efficacy.
• Increase employee retention, fostering a positive and engaged workforce.
• Reduce the risk of developing chronic conditions such as cardiovascular disease.
• Enhance sleep, leading to increased alertness and focus on the job.
• Protect against mental illness, providing a resilient foundation for employees’ well-being.

Keep Shining Hope,

Kathryn
