Yes, role modelling this so colleagues don’t feel under more pressure

Acknowledging that work is one aspect of our life and at times the personal and the professional blend - helping to make that work. I say this as a single mum and carer- the understanding to make it possible.

Agreed and from a range of sources, peers, students, higher up. Can be small meaningful ways. That boost can sometimes be the difference in a tricky week!

I agree a thank you goes a long way- and if it’s publicly, even better. But a quick moment in time to do so can help build connection.

Early markers of when to have the conversations, even if it’s just reaching out at the early stage. Caring enough to notice

A1 so many good points! I feel that sense of belonging and being seen is incredibly important, not genuinely feel supported by individuals and as a community.
