THE IMPORTANCE OF EMOTIONAL INCLUSION
Work life balance is a priority for most employees.
Millennials are looking for a good work/life balance and strong diversity policies to support their wellbeing at work.
The workplace and workforce are changing, and traditional ways of looking at the workforce may not hold for much longer. Many employees are beginning to favour a workplace that cares for their wellbeing.
350 million
People worldwide, of all ages, suffer from depression, according to the World Health Organisation (WHO 2012.) It is predicted that depression will be the most burdensome illness in developed countries by 2030.
The impact of depression on job performance has been estimated to be greater than that of other chronic conditions, such as arthritis, hypertension, back problems, and diabetes (Kessler, Greenberg, Mickelson, Meneades, & Wang, 2001)
70%
In the West, it was estimated that 70% of all people diagnosed with major depression were actively employed in the United States (Druss, Rosenheck, & Sledge, 2000; Greenberg et al., 2003; Race & Furnham, 2014).
40.2%
In the East, the impact of depression on the work capacity is no smaller. An epidemiological study in Mainland China reported a 40.2% workplace depression rate among employees (Yu et al., 2006), which was significantly higher than that in both the United States (6.4%; Kessler, Merikangas, & Wang, 2008) and Europe (33%; McDaid, Curran, & Knapp, 2005).
25%
In Hong Kong, a recent cross-sectional study revealed that 25% of respondents who worked in different industries had presented depressive symptoms in the past month (The University of Hong Kong, 2014).

Episode Summary
In this episode, Mollie Jean De Dieu sits down with Milton Walters where they address ‘How to Cope with Grief in the Workplace.’ How does one deal at work after having lost a loved one: a child, a spouse, a family member, a friend? What is the role of companies here to help any employee navigate this difficult time in their life so that they can still function at work?
Milton Walters
Milton is the CEO of Adapting where he works with major corporates to pilot programs on dealing with grief in the business landscape. He has also started a Podcast called 'Adapting' where he opens up the discussion on the said subject.

How company culture surrounding grief can extend beyond work
Organizations’ ways to prepare for and de-mystify grief
Important Quotes:
"If you could be working in an organization that’s looking to build that culture of empathy, I think you’re really on the right track."
"Any resources like a therapist, councilor, psychologist, that happens to be working in an organization, if they were in an organization and it was the right culture, (I think that’s the other thing, you can’t have one without the other) If you had that culture of empathy and you had somebody in that role, how could it not be something that is really impactful?"
"If that culture is in place, you may allow yourself to be vulnerable enough to do that; to go and see somebody."
"Going back to work is a hell of a challenge. But it’s not just a challenge for those grieving, it’s a challenge for those working with someone who is grieving."
"If you did extend yourself out to somebody that was grieving in an environment that encouraged it and you had some understanding of what the organization expects of you, what they did in relation with grief for their employees, I think you would potentially, you could get real post traumatic growth out of an employee."
"When you need that human connection most is at this time. And so that’s the opportunity for workplaces to just have those conversations to think about it before it happens."
"As a group of people, we may not do it completely right; but at least we’re going to be trying to approach it from a more mature perspective and a more human perspective."

Ask Me Anything! Emotional Inclusion Q&A
with Mollie Jean De Dieu
General Manager for Longchamp Singapore & Malaysia – Ei Founder & Activist
Episode Summary
In this episode, Mollie Jean De Dieu answers 10 thought provoking, and most asked questions about Emotional Inclusion; and shares with us 5 ingredients to achieve it.
In this Episode:
[5:02] Mollie answers 10 thought provoking, and most asked questions about Emotional Inclusion.
[19:05] Mollie leaves us with 5 ingredients to Emotional Inclusion:
1. Practice daily egolessness: caring for each other’s emotional wellness calls for inquisitiveness, mindfulness and understanding.
2. Be open to forgo the old: business ways that once worked no longer are in this ‘new normal.’ This is a fact. We are at a crucial time now: it calls for new thinking, and new thinking leads to new doing.
3. Connect to your humanness: emotions are a universal human trait we all share. Refusing to see the humanity in each other, is denying ourselves the right to be.
4. Lead by example: Leadership is not a position or title. The world is changed by your example and action.
5. Do not make assumptions: --unless you know the full story. If in doubt, always ask the person directly. It might sound like a trivial ‘ingredient’ so as to speak but it really isn’t. We all look for answers that confirm our beliefs, but what if our beliefs are wrong?
Important Quotes:
"Silence around what matters IS the most powerful scream."
"Deadening emotions at work, is an archaic message that is now ringing hollow.
