Mental skills at work – everyday superpowers for resilience and wellbeing

In working life, mental skills are everyday superpowers that support wellbeing, leadership, and the creation of psychologically safe cultures. A stronger mind not only provides resilience in crises, but also gives organisations a competitive edge, greater safety, and long-term continuity.

On 10 October, the world marks World Mental Health Day. The 2025 theme highlights access to mental health services in crises and emergencies. Auntie wants to raise awareness – and remind organisations that strengthening mental health is not just a one-day commitment.

What are mental skills?

Mental skills are, for example, the abilities to manage stress, focus on what matters, and recover from demanding situations. They are also soft skills – identified by research as some of the most critical future skills, especially as AI and automation take over routine tasks.  Read more in our blog

Like physical fitness, mental skills can be strengthened through practice. Auntie helps your organisation’s employees develop these skills so your people can thrive – and your organisation can build a resilient, sustainable culture that supports long-term performance.

Strengthening mental skills – an investment that pays off

Mental skills do not only strengthen individuals – they also underpin the resilience of the whole organisation. When employees know how to manage workload, recognise their strengths, and work constructively together, the organisation copes better with change and pressure.

The numbers speak for themselves

70% of team engagement is attributable to managers (Gallup, 2024).

88% of employees experience negative stress, with over half feeling it for more than six months – a 30% increase from 2023 (If Nordic Health, 2024).

In Finland, more than one third of all sick leave days are due to mental health issues (Kela, 2024).

Every €1 invested in mental health delivers up to €4.70 in return (Deloitte UK). Organisation-wide interventions provide the highest ROI – up to €7.50 for every €1 invested (Deloitte, 2024).

As an Auntie customer, your organisation can prevent burnout, reduce sick leave, strengthen psychological safety, and achieve measurable benefits: improved wellbeing, safer workplaces, more committed employees, and sustainable productivity.

The easiest way to make this happen is to encourage employees and team leads to start an Auntie package.

Building mental skills across the organisation

It was important for us that the service is global and therefore genuinely available to all employees. We have offices from Sydney to San Francisco, so it was important for the service to work fluently in all time zones and in different languages.
