Why we need to talk about grief in the workplace

We chat with Nikki Bell, Co-Founder of Fundraising Everywhere

 

Bereavement will affect all of us in our lifetime. So why aren’t we talking about it more in the workplace?

We explore this topic with Nikki Bell, co-founder of Fundraising Everywhere, in this episode of Starts At The Top. Last year she and the Fundraising Everywhere team lost a close friend and colleague, Mandi Hine-Conway.

This is a brave and honest conversation about why we need to talk about grief more at work, and how to support colleagues who have lost someone. We’re very grateful to Nikki for being so candid and for her warm and open-hearted discussion of why and how we need to look after the people we work with better.

Every conversation we’ve had with Nikki has been inspiring and life-affirming and this is no exception.

TRIGGER WARNING: This episode is an open and honest conversation about grief and how leaders can best respond to death and grief in the workplace. If these are topics you would like to avoid at this time, please be kind to yourself and come back to this episode at a later date.
