Melissa Curran CEO and Founder of the Modern Mind Group answers the question How Do I Support a Grieving Employee?

This is something many of us will face more than once in our careers and it can be a challenge for leaders to know what to do or say in the circumstances. It's important to understand that grief is something that can occur even if we haven't lost a loved one.

In this episode, we discuss and answer the questions below -

• What is grief?
• What can cause someone to experience grief?
• What are the right things to do to support a grieving employee?
• What can I say that will make a difference to them?
• How do I approach grief?
• What questions can I ask them?
• How can I ensure I am not dismissive of their emotions?
