MENTAL HEALTH AWARENESS
PTSD Awareness
Takeaways:
- PTSD’s a type of mental health condition that can happen after experiencing a traumatic event.
- Trauma can be due to interpersonal experience, childhood, and extremely stressful events.
- Treatments are complex and various including therapy and medication but many self-medicate so it’s important to work with professionals to treat PTSD.
DELEGATION
Practical Advice for Delegating Tasks
Takeaways:
- When you grow, it’s hard to delegate the tasks you do to someone else.
- Delegation does not need to mean complacency, because you still keep eyes on the tasks. As an owner or manager, you’re still overseeing the tasks ensuring their quality.
- A lot of individuals dilute the tasks by over delegating. To avoid this, the goal should be high quality production of tasks and empowering the team to grow and contribute to the success of the business.
