💥I want to challenge everyone to start spreading kindness and positivity with the #rippleeffectchallenge💥
.
If you're wondering what you can do, try this. Make it a personal challenge to yourself to compliment one stranger today who makes eye contact with you. But I don't just want you to say something like "those are super cool shoes". I want you to take it one step further. Try adding "you always have the best taste!" It's more personal and takes the compliment from an item to their characteristics or attributes. Try it - you'll be amazed by the positive effect it has! And don't forget to share your stories with #rippleeffectchallenge

Did you know that our society spends more than $25 Billion a year on psychopharmaceuticals and untold Billions dealing with family dysfunction? Shouldn’t education on mental well-being take priority? We need to have a different type of conversation about mental health. During my workshops, I help your employees to not just learn how to talk about their mental health, but how to use these conversations to live a healthier, happier life.

Studies show that you're only present roughly 47% of the time. When someone is rude to you, that number drops to around 15%. 😵
.
.
Our minds tend to depart the present and move to the past or the future. We need to be present - especially if we're caring for people. 🤲
.
.
Ask yourself this question: Are you present? If you're not present - where are you? 🤔
.
.
The ultimate goal of my presentations is to lead people to personal insights that help them stay in the present to live happier, healthier, and more productive lives. Let's talk: http://timcusack.com/ or (616) 774-7166 ✅

In this post, I want to conclude our talk on dealing with a 🚨crisis🚨 in the workplace with "How relevant is this to our every day lives?" .
.
👉 Crisis - whether it is micro or macro can affect us and those around us in a myriad of ways. The word "normal" gets thrown around a lot. During a crisis, it's normal to have a loss of appetite - you're not going crazy, you're not weird - this is a normal reaction to an abnormal event. The things that you may feel when going through a crisis are normal and those feelings should not be ignored. Recognizing what your staff member faces in a crisis and giving them a pathway to get through it successfully will benefit both you and your staff. .
.
🤲 Support during a crisis (large or small) can cut down on the stress, the time it takes to resolve it, and its cost. It will support your staff member at a time of maximum distress, to maintain the focus and productivity you need. .
.

🚨Last week I shared a post about what IS and what ISN'T a crisis - I want to further elaborate on that. I want to talk about the ripple effect that not dealing with a crisis can have. ⬇️
.
It’s not easy to completely separate work and personal life, so stress and difficulties at home are likely to affect an employee’s work in some way. Can you imagine sharing an office with someone after a break-up? Does the idea of working with them give you anxiety? 😐 That's the ripple effect. ⬇️
.
Divorce or relationship struggles aren't something that staff will easily talk about, but it can create a lot of turmoil that will affect the focus, productivity, and effectiveness of the entire workplace. Create an environment where it is acceptable to seek help before the crisis impacts on work. During a crisis, people's coping skills are stretched to the limit so it's a good idea for them to get help before they snap. ⬇️

What is a crisis and what isn't? Well, that's really up to you. If it's a crisis to you, then it's a crisis. 🚨
.
.
We tend to put a crisis into one of two categories: micro or macro. For example relationship struggles vs. an unexpected death. 😓
.
.
Now, both are a crisis, but which one do you think receives attention and care in the workplace? The problem is that both deserve to be addressed. Are struggles with the employee's personal relationships causing the employee to miss days of work, underperform, avoid meetings? 📉
.
.
Don't ignore the problem. If you know a member of your team is going through a break-up, separation or divorce, treat them with sensitivity and compassion. Employers can have a huge influence in ensuring that their employees feel supported when going through relationship breakdowns and other micro-crises. 🤗

💡 A recent survey found that 90% of employees say they perform better when their company supports their emotional wellness. Yet, the same survey also found that only 41% of managers check in on employee wellbeing regularly. .
.
🤔 Do you? .
.
✔️ wellbeing begins at the top. Why is this important? The concept of work-life balance is evolving as today’s workforce look to feel supported, engaged, and meaningful. For this reason, businesses now have to make more of an effort to ensure the well-being of their employees. .

Today is World Mental Health Day. Is mental well-being really that important in our professional lives? In 2018, a U.S. study said that over $31 Billion was lost in productivity to depression alone. 50% of employees with anxiety say it interferes with coworker relationships. Our mental well-being affects the way we think, feel, behave, interact, and cope with the normal stresses of life. So yes, it really is that important! Let's look out for each other today. It can be as simple as a smile or a greeting to a passerby. Want to learn more? www.timcusack.com

Think employee wellness means making sure everyone is happy IN the office? What about OUT of the office? 🤔 If you're serious about your employee's wellbeing, you need to think outside of the box (or office in this case). Think about setting up an employee volunteer day - it could be once a week, a month, or a quarter. Volunteering can have a significant impact on a person’s health and well-being. It can reduce stress levels, improve mood, help people stay active, and give them a sense of purpose. In fact, 94% of people who volunteer say that volunteering improves their mood.

What first comes to mind if I say "mindfulness in the workplace". A touchy-feely fad or valuable management tool that can lift an entire workplace? Research suggests the latter! Injecting a corporate culture of mindfulness not only improves focus but also the ability to manage stress and how employees work together. It also works to create: ✅ Better manager-employee relationships ✅ Stronger, healthier team dynamics ✅ Creating a more positive work environment ✅ An all-round healthier, happier team! I know that mindfulness matters. If you're interested in instilling mindfulness into your organization or have questions, I can be reached at tim@timcusack.com

We’ve all had the experience of feeling scattered, and perhaps a bit overwhelmed at work - this may have something to do with "mindfulness" in the workplace. Mindfulness is our ability to stay focused yet flexible and is a way of reprogramming our minds to think in a healthier, less stressful way. So how does practicing "mindfulness" affect our professional lives? ✅ It can help us absorb new information ✅ It can help us adapt quickly and efficiently ✅ It can help us with problem-solving ✅ It can help facilitate creativity ✅ It can help us empathize with our colleagues Knowing what mindfulness is and putting it into practice are two different things. During my workshops, I help your employees not just learn what mindfulness is, but how to interweave it with their lives. Email me to learn more: tim@timcusack.com

When we talk about taking a holistic approach to workplace wellness, we're not talking about chakras or energy and spirit - we're talking about treating the whole person and their environment to get them to healthy mental wellbeing. Remember, the average worker spends over 1,800 hours a year at work. To create a truly healthy work environment, you must take these three areas into consideration: ✅ Emotional wellness: Give employees access to natural light, and quiet rooms where they can comfortably focus on their work ✅ Physical wellness: Provide people with healthy food options, and ergonomically designed work stations ✅ Environmental wellness: Make sure your workspaces have adequate air quality, light, temperature, and proper acoustics Let's work together to help make your employee's lives healthier: tim@timcusack.com

We're social creatures - from our earliest ancestors who weren't even walking on two feet to where we are now - it's what sets us apart. And being social governs how we interact at the workplace - it helps to create that sense of 'belonging' that we need and is one of the core tenets of our mental wellbeing. Studies show that organizations can facilitate social wellbeing through open and transparent communications, promoting group activities and social events, and encouraging cross-divisional interactions outside of work. Let's get social together: www.timcusack.com
