Editor’s Letter: Leading With Care

Jennifer Goetz It’s impossible to ignore the growing mental health crisis in the United States. According to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention, about one in five U.S. adults will experience a mental illness at some point in their lives. Protecting mental health, just like ensuring physical health and safety, is critical to creating a healthy and productive workforce.

One way to consider employee mental health is to think about how your workplace is designed. In this issue, we explore how workplace design is being used both to bring employees back to the office, and ensure their mental health and well-being.

Furthermore, we look at the top themes revolving around security and access control. Other topics covered include strategies for conducting conferences in the era of hybrid work, how daylight can impact employee productivity, how HVAC systems have evolved to better indoor air quality, and more.

While technology is an indisputable asset in today’s world, we have to remember our people are irreplaceable. Weekly check-ins, offering calming outdoor spaces, providing mental health resources are all ways facility executives can step up to support employees, while ensuring productivity.

How do you recognize your staff after a job well done? I’d love to hear your experiences on how you’re improving your organizations for stakeholders, patrons, and your staff. As always, I look forward to hearing from you.

Jennifer Goetz
