When it comes to mental health in the workplace, Sheila, by her own admission, has learned from her mistakes. She saw first-hand how businesses and organisations weren't taking mental health seriously and what a detrimental impact that was having on industry as a whole.

In an effort to tackle this head-on, Sheila started BMR and today the company leads the way in mental health support programmes, all of which have a definitive return on investment.

Well known for her ability to 'cut to the chase', Sheila believes that workplace wellbeing isn't just about fruit bowls and yoga and that you can't simply magic away employee stress by 'fixing' people.
