Testimonials for Mitch Wallis

It’s authenticity. The story that Mitch tells, and the way he tells it, breaks through. We’ve been having this conversation about wellness for a long time, inside of Microsoft, and making progress. But there’s no question that when we introduced Mitch to the team and saw how he shared his personal story it resonated in a way we hadn’t been able to get through in the past.

As we are discovering more about the importance of mental health in creating a safe work environment, it was suggested by one of our colleagues that we invite Mitch to speak to our organisation about his experiences. Mitch spoke with such openness about his journey with mental health that our colleagues were inspired to share their own stories and experiences. This lead to us implementing the Real Mates program, a source of peer support for our colleagues as we navigate our way through these challenging times of 2020. I’d like to thank Mitch for sharing his story with us, and I hope he has the chance to spark more positive change across other organisations as the awareness of mental health grows.
