Celebrating Connection and Community This week, we’re bringing together two powerful themes—Connection and Community—to spotlight what makes our workplace not just a place to grow, but a place to belong. As part of Learning at Work Week, we're celebrating Connection—how learning brings us together, sparks new ideas, and strengthens our ability to collaborate and grow. At the same time, during Mental Health Awareness Week, we’re focusing on Community—recognizing that the support we offer each other plays a vital role in our wellbeing. This special session, Understanding Burnout and Avoiding Stress, will explore how we can recognize early signs of burnout, manage stress effectively, and support both ourselves and our colleagues. Both themes remind us that we thrive when we learn together, support one another, and create a culture where everyone feels seen, heard, and valued. Whether it's through a shared learning moment or a simple check-in, every connection builds a stronger, healthier community.
