Episode 4: Nikki Sharp ~ Senior Manager of Health & Wellness at Shaw Industries Group
In this month’s episode, we spotlight Shaw Industries, a global flooring provider with more than 20,000 employees – whom they call associates – worldwide. Beginning in 2019, long before the COVID-19 pandemic, Shaw Industries began several company wide initiatives to increase access to quality mental health care for their associates and shift company culture to normalize self-care and mental health. Their work has continued since the COVID-19 pandemic. We speak with Nikki Sharp, Shaw’s Senior Manager of Health and Wellness about all things behavioral health, including how Shaw has worked to train leaders and managers to recognize and support associates who might be struggling.
