Mental health leaves are up 300% since 2019. Pick one change your team will see this week and what you’ll tell them.
Why this topic matters
Reorgs, layoffs, and AI shifts have teams under more pressure than they’ve been in years, and leaders are carrying the most of it. Mental health leaves are up 300% since 2019, and 61% of HR leaders saw them rise again this past year. Managers have more influence here than they think: people who rate their manager highly have a 48% lower risk of burnout. How you lead through this shapes whether your people stay, go on leave, or leave for good.
