This purpose of this workshop is to provide an in-depth understanding of how grief can affect individuals and the workplace on larger scale.

Objectives of the workshop include:

2. Identifying ways to interact with and support grieving individuals.

3. Compare and contrast the impact of effective and ineffective coping mechanisms on individuals and the workplace.
