For Podcast 4 of ‘Influence Me’ - it is an absolute pleasure to interview Assistant Commissioner (Rtd) Joanne Crampton M.O.M. who recently concluded an impressive career with the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. I appreciate her discussing with me the ongoing mental health challenges present in the policing and emergency service sector, both nationally and internationally. During this podcast we discuss the 2018 Beyond Blue ‘Answering the call’ report which has shed further light on mental health challenges in the context of this crucial sector. We also discuss the big impact of workplace culture on mental health outcomes. As Glenn Close was quoted as saying “What mental health needs is more sunlight, more candor, and more unashamed conversation.”
