The Most Powerful Woman in American Business | Karen Lynch
Recently CVS Health CEO Karen Lynch wrote in CNN an opinion piece on how business leaders needed to get serious about mental health and it has made a great impact for all those who read and understood her concern.
She writes: Even though mental health challenges aren’t anything new, we are living in a time with a series of unique stressors that are impacting every one of us, such as Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, as well as a pandemic that has stretched two-and-a-half years and continually reminds us that as much as we want to be done with it, we’re still living with a public health emergency that none of us has experienced in our lifetimes. It’s no wonder that people are reporting “alarming” levels of stress, according to the American Psychological Association.
