But it’s not just a challenge for those grieving, it’s a challenge for those working with someone who is grieving.”“If you did extend yourself out to somebody that was grieving in an environment that encouraged it and you had some understanding of what the organization expects of you, what they did in relation with grief for their employees, I think you would potentially, you could get real post traumatic growth out of an employee.”“When you need that human connection most is at this time. And so that’s the opportunity for workplaces to just have those conversations to think about it before it happens.”“As a group of people, we may not do it completely right; but at least we’re going to be trying to approach it from a more mature perspective and a more human perspective.”Stay connected:Milton Walters - Linkedinhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/milton-walters-44b2675/Adapting - websiteadapting.com.auAdapting - Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/adaptinginmygrief/Adapting - Facebookhttps://www.facebook.com/adaptinginmygrief-101345781690544Emotional inclusionhttps://www.emotionalinclusion.com/https://www.instagram.com/emotional_inclusion/
