This week on The New P&L Deep Discussion we speak with the amazing Steve Phillip. For almost 30 years, Steve was a successful consultant, trainer and keynote speaker until December 4th 2019, when his life changed forever – it was the day his son Jordan took his own life. A truly devastating moment and sadly something far too many of us have also experienced in our own lives.
In Jordan’s memory, Steve established The Jordan Legacy in early 2020, to provide support to those struggling to cope with life or considering suicide.Over the last two years, Steve has traveled tirelessly throughout the UK and Europe delivering talks on the topic of suicide prevention to corporate organisations, communities and governments leaders, employees and policy makers.
Steve’s lived experience of suicide underpins his desire to help people understand that suicide is not an inevitable path for those struggling in life and that tragedy can be turned into hope with the right support, passion and focus. We discussed with Steve:
· What the ambition of ‘Zero Suicide’ means
· Background to The Baton of Hope Nationwide Tour 2023
· How to support the Baton of Hope Nationwide Tour 2023
· The challenges of addressing mental health in the workplace
· Why business needs to get serious about wellbeing
· The role of leadership in driving awareness and action
· Courses are not enough – why the support needs to also come afterwards
· The role of language in defining and discussing suicide awareness and prevention
· Why more focus and resources need to also be given to those who have lived through a suicide attempt or bereaved by suicide
