Mike Sipple Jr.: Compassionate Leadership and Mental Health

We need to ask the next question: we need to care why they didn't show up Two Days In A Row.
Ever wondered how compassion can transform leadership? Mike Sipple Jr. is here to share his journey. Leading several organizations, Mike is no stranger to the pressures of a busy life. But what sets him apart is his unwavering focus on mental health, both personally and professionally. With a family history of anxiety and depression, and having lost a close friend to suicide, Mike understands the critical importance of mental well-being.
In this episode of 'Stigmatized', he opens up about his experiences and the steps he's taken to prioritize mental health in the workplace. Mike talks about the significance of vulnerability and transparency among leaders. He believes in creating safe spaces where team members can openly discuss their mental health struggles. By encouraging personal days and holding each other accountable, Mike's team operates with a 'come as you are' mindset.
The discussion also touches on the negative impact of constant news cycles and online negativity, as well as the rise in domestic violence. Mike urges leaders to ask deeper questions and genuinely care about their employees' well-being. He envisions a shift where businesses become talent magnets by taking care of their employees' mental health. This episode is a call to action for leaders to embrace vulnerability, foster open conversations, and help break the stigma around mental health and addiction.
