PAUSE’s “Leading Through Loss” Series
PAUSE’s “Leading through loss” series aims to gather workplace leaders (in particular – HR leaders, managers, and Employee Resource Group/ERG leaders) for workshops focused on how to support employees, colleagues, and community through grief, loss, and bereavement leave.
*That said, these workshops are open to the general public and will be incredibly useful/relevant to anyone supporting folks navigating grief, dying, and death. We invite anyone and everyone interested in this topic to join!
