Creating mentally healthy workplaces isn’t about launching more initiatives, it’s achieved by building cultures where people feel valued, heard and supported so they can thrive.

In recognition of World Mental Health Day 2026 CMHA brought together a diverse panel of speakers to explore Building Partnerships and Psychologically Safe Workplaces, looking at ways in which organisations can move from awareness to meaningful action.

Generously hosted by the HKEX the event was opened by CMHA HK Board member Beatrice Lung, followed by Hilleke sharing insights from our 2026 Thriving at Work Assessment and the progress CMHA HK members have made to create mentally healthy workplaces, while identifying areas for continued focus.

Jennifer Tam, Co-Chair of the CMHA HK Board moderated the discussion with panellists: Jovy Wong (EY), Natascha Seume (HSBC), Sharon Cheng (HKEX) and John Lee (HKJC).
