Psychological Strategies to Support Employees at Work and During Return to Work presented by Dr. Dayna-Lee Baggley, Ph.D. on September 15, 2026
Supporting employees to stay at work or successfully return after a leave requires more than policies, it requires psychologically informed leadership. In this practical, one-hour webinar, you’ll learn evidence-based strategies to help employees navigate challenges, maintain engagement, and reintegrate with confidence. We’ll explore how psychological safety shapes employee decisions to stay or return, and how leaders can foster environments where people feel supported, respected, and able to perform at their best. Grounded in psychological science, this session provides actionable tools to reduce barriers, support well-being, and strengthen workplace retention.
