SUMMARY:A Critical Point: Mental Health for Association CEOs
DESCRIPTION:Course Description:  \nLeading an association can be deeply rewarding—yet as a chief staff executive\, the physical and emotional demands often come at great personal cost. Drawing on insights from a recent survey of nearly 150 CSEs\, this webinar uncovers stark realities: 85% report negative impacts on their health\, 60% struggle with sleep\, and nearly one in five have experienced workplace-related mental health challenges. This practical session blends data with real-world strategies for building healthier work habits\, establishing boundaries\, nurturing board awareness\, and reshaping governance culture—empowering association CEOs and CSEs to lead sustainably while modeling well-being for their entire organization. \n  \nLearning Objectives: \nInterpret the data — Describe the prevalence and impact of stress\, burnout\, sleep issues\, and physical strain among C-suite executives. \nSet and maintain healthy boundaries — Apply strategies to protect work–life integration\, even within demanding board and stakeholder environments. \nEngage boards and governance — Advocate effectively for supportive governance structures and policies that embed executive well-being. \nNormalize well-being conversations — Use language and forums to destigmatize mental health in the executive suite. \nImplement practical habits and systems — Identify at least three individual and organizational tactics—from peer networks\, sabbaticals\, to sleep hygiene—that reinforce sustainable leadership. \n  \nTo Watch this Webinar on the Media Library CLICK HERE!
