“Workplaces are often described as professional environments, but they are also human ones. Employees bring their whole selves to work, including their joys, struggles, and, inevitably, their grief. By integrating grief education and compassion into workplace culture, organizations can honor the humanity of their employees, creating a space where people can navigate life’s challenges without sacrificing their careers or mental health. Grief doesn’t demand perfection. It simply asks for presence. By acknowledging, understanding, and embracing grief, we honor the whole person and create a culture where everyone can truly thrive in the workplace." -- Dora Carpenter, Founder, Institute of Professional Grief Coaching | IOPGC
