Men's mental health crisis: How leaders can drive genuine change

On Demand

For many men, silence is the default, but with the alarming stats around men's health, suicide, and disengagement, it’s clear that addressing men’s mental health requires more than awareness. It demands ongoing, courageous conversations and real cultural shift.

In this masterclass, Graeme Cowan, author of Back from the Brink, Founding Board Director of R U OK? and host of The Caring CEO podcast, will unpack the often-hidden ways mental health shows up in men, and explore the practical strategies leaders can use to support men in the workplace and drive meaningful change.

Exclusive insights from Graeme Cowan

In this Linkedin article, Graeme Cowan shares the confronting truth.

93% of workplace deaths are men.

Even more alarming, according to the European Trade Union Confederation (ETUC), 75% of these deaths are linked to harmful workplace stress, including suicide and stress-related heart disease, while only 25% result from physical accidents. These men are fathers, sons, brothers, and colleagues, leaving behind devastated families and workplaces.

Join us as we share Graeme’s powerful insights and lived experience, and explore how we can bring this critical message into every workplace fostering a culture of care.
