In this week's show

• Why leaders should think about mental health week
• Introversion is not a mental health issue
• Being introverted does not mean you're lonely.
• “First impressions count” in recruitment, and one of the problems with that.
• 76% of Americans are against bringing the Tyrannosaurus rex back from extinction, 10% are in favour. 

This week it's mental health week, so this show is mainly about Mental Health. Mental Health week is an opportunity for people to talk about mental health, raise its profile and lower the stigma.

Previous episodes of Activate Your Introvert (available at Activate Your Introvert.co.uk) have touched on related issues. You can listen again to episodes by Mike Pagan, Kathy Chillistone and Lisa Seagroatt. Those episodes touch on why understanding mental health is important for us as leaders, which is also a theme for today's episode.

This episode has a slightly different format to normal, I hope you enjoy it.
