Today’s topic may just be one we don’t talk about enough – mental health in the workplace. We’re going to dive into some tough and important topics today, including how your organization can implement a mentally healthy workplace, misconceptions or myths surrounding mental health in the workplace, proactive steps employees can take to prioritize their mental health at work, and more.  And we’re not doing it alone. Today we’ll be visiting with Kyle Duford, author, brander, speaker, and thought leader. He is the President of The Brand Leader, specializing in crafting outstanding advertising and branding for global brands looking to own winnable market share. A former magazine editor, he spent much of his career focused on e-commerce in the fashion, outdoor, and sports industries. Kyle’s unique blend of advertising, branding, and digital expertise allows him to create and lead some of the foremost brands through his work at The Brand Leader. As a thought leader focusing on business leadership, Duford grew the agency from five people to more than 30 in just three years, winning five Best Places to Work awards in the process.
