Dagmar emphasizes that mental health is not just the absence of illness but a dynamic state that affects learning, communication, emotional resilience, and adaptability. The conversation highlights the growing need for organizations to support mental health, particularly as burnout rates rise and younger generations bring new expectations to the workforce. With burnout costing the global economy $323 billion annually and contributing to 50% of employee turnover, prioritizing mental well-being is both a moral and business imperative.

As Gen Z steps into leadership roles, their emphasis on work-life balance, emotional well-being, and transparent mental health discussions is reshaping workplace culture. Businesses that adapt to these evolving expectations will not only attract top talent but also create stronger, more engaged teams.
