Heritage Day is on the horizon in September, and we are mindful not only of the wonderful, diverse society we live in, in South Africa, but also of how important diversity and inclusion is in our workplaces - for the equal benefit of all South Africans, as well as for the sake of well-rounded, representative organisations that benefit from a variety of perspectives, greater innovation, faster problem solving and better decision making. The EAPA-SA Board wishes you all an enjoyable and safe Heritage Day. 
 
This month we bring you an article that examines executive coaching and its future as a service offering within EAP. We also take a look at how to assist employees in the aftermath of trauma.

We take a dive into understanding more about how to reduce unconscious bias in the workplace and we ask the question in an article titled, “Working from Anywhere - is South Africa ready?” 

As always we would love to hear from you and welcome your input. Feel free to get in touch with us with feedback and article ideas.  We are always keen for you to share comments on our newsletter articles - tell us what you enjoy most and what topics you would like to read more about in your EAPA-SA newsletter.
