THE WIRE: Turning mental health awareness into action
Although significant headway has been made in recognising the need to improve mental health in the property management sector, Hermione Hart called on the industry to roll its sleeves up to get the ball fully rolling.
In line with the Mental Health Awareness Month, the director of Sidekick sits down with Grace Ormsby and Sadhana Smiles to discuss how conversations around burnout and work-related stress in the industry have changed in recent years and enumerate the common obstacles she encountered that hinder talks about mental wellness.
And while Hermione acknowledges that hitting targets \u2014 be it sales, office expansion, profits or rent rolls \u2014 continues to be the bread and butter of any property management business, she explains how overlooking workplace mental wellbeing can hurt a business\u2019 bottom line in more ways than one.\xa0
