"HOW WE DEFINE SUCCESS AS A CULTURE HAS LED TO MANY STRUGGLING WITH GUILT, ANXIETY, STRESS, BURNOUT OR WORSE. IS THE WAY WE DEFINE SUCCESS READY FOR A DRASTIC UPGRADE? WITH SUICIDE STILL BEING THE #1 CAUSE OF DEATH FOR MALES IN THE UK (AGE 21-45), I BELIEVE IT IS TIME TO OPEN UP THE DIALOGUE ABOUT THE IMPORTANCE OF (MENTAL) HEALTH FOR THE BUSINESS, THE PEOPLE AND THE BOTTOM LINE.” SUSANNE GRANT

"The way we view work is changing and we are at a pivotal point in history where we can raise the bar. It's time to normalise that people have a life beyond the desk. Because family is often the reason people show up in the first place. By recognising that people are real - valuable - people, we can reduce stress-related absence and turnover costs significantly,” says Susanne Grant.

Scotland based work-life balance expert, Susanne Grant says, “Giving employees more flexibility, such as the four- day week, to manage other aspects of their lives, will allow them to show up at the job more focused; making them more productive and delivering better quality work. This will, of course, benefit both the company as well as the employees.”
