Carrying the weight of others' trauma is one of the heaviest people leader responsibilities. If we don't manage our own health well, we'll burn ourselves out to the detriment of those around us.
In this conversation, Tarveen Forrester, Head of People Operations and Diversity at Tastemade, shares her advice for navigating hard situations and leading others through them. After a tumultuous few years managing the pandemic and the death of an employee, she's developed strong coping skills and boundaries to support her own mental and physical health so she can lead her team well.
Tarveen also discusses how to equip managers to lead a diverse workforce, leverage your team members' strengths, and create a cohesive culture when spread across the globe.
