May is Mental Health Awareness Month

by WSCPA

The WSCPA is highlighting mental health awareness throughout the month of May as part of our mission to celebrate and include the authentic, whole person. Kimberly Scott, WSCPA President & CEO, sat down with therapist and CPA, Carrie Potter, to discuss steps leaders can take to support their employees' mental health. 

Topics include how important it is for leaders to set an example from the top and not just allow space for people to be human, but encourage it. Leaders should create a culture in their organizations where every individual feels safe to be whole and authentic no matter where they are at. While they don't need to have all of the answers, they can serve as a bridge to resources available in the community.
