In the latest episode of Totally Connected, we sit down with Andy Bateman, Entelar Group’s Delivery Domain Chapter Lead.
This is a powerful conversation about resilience, recovery and the vital importance of workplace mental health support. Andy shares his journey from the UK to New Zealand, and how a life-altering car accident in 2023 transformed not just his perspective on mental health, but his understanding of what true organisational support looks like.
With remarkable candour, Andy discusses the challenges of managing a diverse technical portfolio while navigating personal trauma, and how Entelar Group’s supportive culture made a crucial difference in his recovery journey. We explore the company’s proactive approach to mental health through initiatives like the Mahi Tahi program, and discuss practical ways organisations can better support their people through unexpected life events.
From breaking down the stigma around seeking help to implementing effective support systems, this episode offers valuable insights for leaders and organisations looking to create more supportive, people-centred workplaces.
Tune in for a deeply human conversation about resilience, recovery, and how organisations can make a real difference in their people’s lives by prioritising mental health and wellbeing.
