The menopause at workLecture50 min

Have you ever felt you had lost track of yourself? Or that a colleague seems scattered? Slept badly again last night? Have you wondered whether it might be down to a hormonal change? The time before menopause can come on gradually, and symptoms can appear before the age of 40 — tiredness, brain fog and the feeling of not recognising yourself.

The lecture goes through the concepts, the symptoms, the life factors that can affect how you feel, working life, and the adjustments that are possible.

Enjoyment at work and communicationWorkshop120 min

Is there anything more important than enjoying your work? I doubt it. An employee who is happy and well at work will also perform at their best, which in turn benefits the whole organisation. Enjoyment at work leads to better performance and greater wellbeing, which in turn leads to less sickness absence. We talk about personal responsibility, the balance between work and free time, communication, collaboration, health factors and much more.

The lecture is combined with a workshop where participants work in groups. The mood is light and there is humour, but there is seriousness too — because we want everyone to feel well, to be seen and to be listened to.

The session is built around what you need. Are you new to each other and need to talk about ground rules and understanding, for instance, or do you simply need a boost of energy in the working groups?

Three quick questions for Annelie

Why do you lecture on the menopause and women's health?

Working as a speaker on the menopause and women's health is a way for me to contribute to greater knowledge, less stigma and better quality of life for a large group of women — both at work and privately. It motivates me as a speaker, but also as a woman, a partner and a mother.

What is the message in your lectures for companies?

The menopause affects energy, sleep, mental wellbeing, performance and the capacity to work, but it is still an area where many people lack knowledge and support. Through lectures, complex research can be translated into concrete, understandable and practical guidance that makes a difference day to day.

What is your background and training as a speaker?

I trained as an occupational health scientist and also as a menopause coach through SGK. I have many years of experience leading and training companies and management teams on the menopause, women's health, enjoyment at work and a sustainable working life. My professional background is in local and regional government.
