Supporting Colleagues Under Pressure | Practical Workplace Tools

In times of high pressure and uncertainty, stress can show up quickly in the workplace, as distraction, irritability, withdrawal, conflict, or reduced performance.

In Episode One of our new Workplace Harmonics webinar series, supported by Viatris, mentl founder Scott Armstrong is joined by Dr Robert Chandler, clinical psychologist and Managing Director of The Lighthouse Arabia, to explore practical ways leaders and colleagues can support one another during challenging periods while maintaining healthy professional boundaries.

Together they discuss how uncertainty affects behaviour at work, how to check in with colleagues without escalating anxiety, how to manage difficult conversations respectfully, and how to recognise when someone may need additional support.

The conversation also explores simple, practical actions leaders and teams can take to restore stability, focus, and psychological safety during uncertain times.

This webinar is part of our Workplace Harmonics series, supported by Viatris, focused on practical wellbeing tools for leaders and teams.

Across three sessions, the series explores how to support colleagues during challenging moments, address the drivers of stress and burnout, and build neuroinclusive workplaces where different ways of thinking are supported.
​
The focus throughout is on simple, actionable approaches that strengthen communication, psychological safety, and resilience across teams.
