Sober Positive Workplace (feat. what employers need to know)

Show Up and Stay | Sober Positive Workplace

In part 2 of our workplace series, we discuss the things employers need to know to create a "sober positive" environment.

• Michael Scott ("The Office") defines an intervention and educates his employees on why "doing alcohol" is bad
• Compelling reasons employers should want to build a sober positive workplace including productivity impact
• Times are changing:
  • WeWork
  • Salesforce and Soberforce
