Episode description

Melissa Curran CEO and Founder of the Modern Mind Group answers the question How Do I Support a Grieving Employee?

This is something many of us will face more than once in our careers and it can be a challenge for leaders to know what to do or say in the circumstances. It's important to understand that grief is something that can occur even if we haven't lost a loved one. 

In this episode, we discuss and answer the questions below - 

  • What is grief? 
  • What can cause someone to experience grief? 
  • What are the right things to do to support a grieving employee? 
  • What can I say that will make a difference to them? 
  • How do I approach grief?
  • What questions can I ask them?
  • How can I ensure I am not dismissive of their emotions?

We highly suggest you also check out episode 9. The 7 Stages of Grief for more information and understanding.
