Leading Your Team Through Overwhelm: Prevention and Recovery

This video was recorded on March 25, 2021 as a part of the South Southwest Mental Health Technology Transfer Center Regional Advisory Board.

While facing the challenges of these times,  leaders may notice that almost everyone is either overwhelmed or on the edge of overwhelm. You may not be sure of what to offer an over-taxed team. Self-care and resiliency training  will help, but it is not enough to reduce and prevent the current state of overwhelm we are experiencing. In this session, we will dive deeply into understanding overwhelm, set in the context of these times,  and explore the proactive strategies leaders can use to help themselves and their teams recover from overwhelm.
