Ep #190: Dealing with Grief at Work with Krista St-Germain
As a total corporate badass, you know how to handle tough conversations at work.
But some conversations are tougher than others.
And one of the most challenging subjects that we rarely talk about in the corporate world is grief.
What do you do when a leader or a team member at your organization is personally experiencing grief?
And how do you hold space for your own grief while continuing to be the corporate badass that you are?
These are important conversations that all leaders need to be prepared to have.
So if you’ve ever struggled to find the right words or take the right actions in the face of grief, this episode is for you.
Krista St-Germain is a Master Certified Life Coach, Post-Traumatic Growth and grief expert, widow, mom and host of The Widowed Mom Podcast.
And on this episode of Women Changing Leadership with Stacy Mayer, Krista will share some of the ways we can support our peers, our leaders, our team members – and ourselves – as we deal with times of grief at work.
