They Will Reject The Idea of Support
WRONG. You will be surprised at how many members of staff grab the opportunity to speak to someone neutral.
In our experience your investment with Steven Afshar® - Blueprint For Success delivers psychotherapeutic change work saving huge amounts of time, stress and money.
What If They Recover But Then Leave?
But what if they STAY! The gratitude they’ll experience of their employer placing them in the right kind of care will be huge and they will want to return the favor and make up a lot of ground that has been lost through absence, reduced workload and targets missed.
I Am Not Sure I Want My Company Knowing We’ve Hired A Psychotherapist
And they do not have to. Steven Afshar® - Blueprint For Success delivers an effective intervention that is discreet and respects privacy. But let’s be realistic, staff talk. And if your staff find that you have hired our services you may just notice how many other members of staff have been quietly coping with ill mental health but have just hidden the symptoms. With 1 in 4 adults experiencing ill mental health at some point in their life, you may be surprised how many other people in your workplace are suffering.
I Think I Would Rather Work Them Out Of The Business
This is the perceived easy route in dealing with a troubled employee who is under performing. But is it? The legal and financial implications can be complex and who knows what emotional impact it will have on the individual if you were to persuade them to resign.
Giving them the benefit of the doubt by supplying them expert intervention can have surprising results. And you never know...you may not just get back your employee, you may get back a superstar.
Can I Not Just Get Them Signed Off From Work?
Of course you can. But having time off may reduce their levels of stress temporarily but will it actually create change in them to start altering their attitude, coping skills and behaviour where it serves them and the business.
In our experience there needs to be a holistic approach to enabling employees to fully recover from ill - mental health. Getting your members of staff back into work after extended periods of time off can actually backfire and create further problems.
