Mental Health Symposium

Mental Health as a Performance Edge: Building Cultures that Buffer Stress and Sustain Vitality
We’re long past “wellness as a perk.” And mental health is not just about avoiding burnout. It’s the foundation of human performance. In this keynote, I’ll share the lens of Performance Medicine: a proactive model that treats health as a trainable capacity rather than a crisis to manage.
Drawing from experience working with executives, founders, and teams under pressure, our keynote speakers will explore how organizations can shift from stigma and siloed programs to building “performance cultures” that buffer stress, support attention, and sustain vitality. They’ll connect physiology and psychology – sleep, metabolic health, musculoskeletal pain, resilience training – and outline practical levers leaders can implement immediately.
The goal is to give employers a new playbook: one that positions mental health not as a liability to contain, but as an asset to invest in for long-term performance and organizational success.
