Are you uncomfortable having tough conversations?

Talkling about mental health with someone? We so often label these conversations as 'hard', 'uncomfortable', 'awkward', BUT I think what we are doing is just labelling our own feelings about the conversation, not the other persons. What could their feelings be about it?

To be seen, to be heard, is to feel human.

The Connection Between Employee Strengths and Business Performance

They say that a company?s best asset is its people. And it?s true?the unique blend of knowledge and strengths that people contribute to their organisation are resources that can never be exactly replicated by competitors. However, companies don?t always know how to best capitalise on some of these people resources. The place of knowledge is pretty well understood?companies accept that they need to invest in professional development, knowing that this reliably benefits the organisation with a good return on investment.
