On Day 2️⃣, we have the whole morning session fully dedicated to self-directed group coaching by Dr Claire Hardy @lancasteruni.bsky.social, our in-house expert in Organisational Health & Wellbeing + core member of our #ESMORTF.

So much useful insights & protected time for reflection!

…and that’s a wrap! 💫

What an incredible 1.5 days!!! Our first ever #ESMORTF special workshop.

Big thanks to #ESMO for believing in this initiative, and especially to co-chairs @susanabanerjee.bsky.social & Dr Claire Hardy + @francescalongo.bsky.social for pulling it altogether. 🙌

For Session 3, we pivot towards 🔎 workplace risk factors & approaches.

In some ways, the field of psychosocial science has moved on much quicker than our adoption.

🚨 How can we implement international standards for best practice at work e.g. ISO 45003?

In our first breakout session, we had the chance to hear firsthand from our delegates 🌍 re: opportunties & challenges faced.

➡️ What are the main issues faced?
➡️ How can we address these?

Reassuring somewhat to hear these shared experience, irrespective of culture/countries.
