According to an Anxiety Disorders Association of America survey, while only 9% of individuals are living with a diagnosed anxiety disorder, 40% experience ongoing stress or anxiety in their daily lives. The workplace is overflowing with people stressed and anxious.
Anxiety takes a toll on productivity, the level of healthy team interactions, and the rate of absenteeism. For employers, this study highlights the need for being mindful of your employees’ mental states.
Some need outside help, but sometimes, it’s as simple as being aware and encouraging to those in need.
Proverbs 12:25 teaches, “Anxiety in a man’s heart weighs him down, but a good word makes him glad.”
If you’re leading a team, check in on your team members and look for opportunities to share a good word with them.
