Description

Grief in the workplace is something we don’t really talk about. After all it is a very uncomfortable subject. No one likes to talk about loss. Death, Divorce, Chronic or Terminal illness are all things that employers have to deal with as those they employ experience these tragedies. But not dealing with this issue is costing corporations over 100 BILLION dollars in lost revenue each year.

Best selling author and founder/host of the Graduating Grief program and podcast Sherrie Dunlevy, has created an interactive workshop designed to help those in the workplace find compassionate, helpful ways to start the conversation with those grieving. She also provides actionable steps we each can take to help those suffering, “ease” back into a normal life in the workplace.
