Mental Health Matters: How Engagement and Recognition Make a Difference

Uncertainty—from shifting policies to shrinking budgets—is taking a toll on employee wellbeing. As organizations navigate job insecurity, funding challenges, and operational pivots, one thing is clear: mental health support isn’t optional—it’s essential.

Join Christi Gilhoi, employee engagement leader at companies like Qualcomm and Okta, alongside Matt Simon from New Hope Health, a behavioral health organisation serving communities across the eastern U.S., as they explore how recognition, communication, and holistic engagement strategies can protect mental health and strengthen culture—even during instability.

You’ll learn:

  • How to support employee mental health with recognition-based strategies
  • Why economic uncertainty amplifies the need for engagement
  • Real-life program examples from healthcare and enterprise teams
  • Ways to align recognition with mental health and EAP initiatives
  • Tangible steps to protect wellbeing while navigating organisational change
