Moving from lockdown into another stressful period with a financial crisis looming, the mental health conversation has to be continued & openly addressed.
A career in sales goes hand in hand with networking, which often means a drink in hand too!
We're still in a society where giving up smoking or drugs is met with rapturous applause while saying no to a drink... 'Oh come on, don't be so boring!' So how hard is it to say ‘no’?
It is estimated that almost 60% of people use alcohol as a way to cope with the stresses of everyday life but alcohol acts as a depressant and makes us feel groggy, which definitely doesn't go hand in hand with a career in sales.
At Growth Hub HQ, we care about the conversation around mental health and vices that people may turn to which is why this Friday at 11am, our panel will be sharing their own experiences and thoughts on drinking culture within sales.
This is NOT a preaching session to stop drinking, but an open discussion on how we use alcohol, the effects and what more employers can do to support mental maintenance, in regards to alcohol.
