Strategies for Building a More Trauma-Informed Workplace
Wednesday, March 25, 12:00-12:45pm, Zoom
In the United States, psychological trauma affects more than half of adults and can shape how people experience safety, manage stress, and feel a sense of control at work. Join Drs. Bagwell-Gray and Embry as they share their collaborative research on trauma‑informed workplaces and why understanding the impact of trauma is essential for supporting employee wellbeing and performance. Through real-world examples, they’ll offer practical strategies that leaders, managers, supervisors, and employees can use to better support one another.
Presenters: Meredith Bagwell-Gray, PhD, LMSW, Associate Professor of Social Welfare;
Elizabeth Embry, PhD, MBA, MPH, Assistant Professor of Management and
Entrepreneurship in the School of Business
