What does a workplace mental health speaker do?+−
A workplace mental health speaker helps employees and leaders talk honestly about pressure, burnout, and connection without turning the room into a therapy session. Will Craig delivers a story-driven keynote that names what the mask costs teams, models thoughtful vulnerability from the stage, and leaves people with practical language they can use in real conversations at work the next day.
How much does it cost to hire a corporate mental health speaker?+−
Fees depend on format, length, travel, and whether the engagement is a single keynote or an ongoing program. A 45–60 minute corporate keynote sits at one end, a facilitated fireside chat in the middle, and a 90-day implementation program with champion training at the other. Share your date, audience size, and format on the booking form and you will get a clear quote — no retainer required to start the conversation.
How do I hire Will Craig to speak at our company event?+−
Submit the booking form with your event date, audience, and goals. Will replies personally, usually within two business days, with a short discovery call. After the call you receive a proposed format, timeline, and a simple one-page agreement. Most corporate keynotes are confirmed within a week of the first conversation.
How does a typical workplace engagement start?+−
We begin with a brief discovery call to understand your workforce, culture goals, and event context. From there I propose a format — keynote, fireside chat, or full implementation — along with a timeline, champion structure, and success measures. Most engagements are scoped within one week and confirmed with a simple agreement.
How far in advance should we book?+−
Keynotes and fireside chats can often be scheduled 4–8 weeks out. Full 90-day implementation consulting is best launched 2–3 months ahead of your target launch date so we have time to recruit champions, design the charter, and prepare speakers. Annual programs and conference keynotes typically book 3–6 months in advance.
What formats do you offer?+−
Three core formats. A keynote is 45–60 minutes for all-hands, offsites, or wellness weeks — high energy, story-driven, and practical. A fireside chat is a designed, facilitated panel conversation that launches the framework with visible leadership participation. Implementation consulting is a 90-day rollout with champion training, recurring sessions, and measurement support.
Can the content be tailored to our industry or culture?+−
Yes. Every engagement is adapted to your industry, workforce demographics, benefits landscape, and existing mental-health resources. The framework stays the same, but the examples, language, referral pathways, and measures are co-designed with your People team and any clinical or legal partners you already trust.
How is measurement handled?+−
We measure environmental health, not personal disclosure. Anonymous pulse feedback tracks felt permission to discuss mental health, sense of connection, and confidence in manager support. Implementation clients also review champion capability, resource awareness, and aggregate participation signals. No identifiable health information is collected or reported.
Do you offer virtual or hybrid options?+−
Absolutely. Keynotes and fireside chats translate well to virtual and hybrid delivery when the platform, moderation, and speaker prep are designed for it. Implementation consulting is often a blend of virtual champion training and in-person launch events.
Is this therapy or mental-health counseling?+−
No. The Mask framework creates peer connection, visible permission, and trusted pathways to professional support. Champions are trained connectors, not clinicians. We partner with your existing benefits, EAP, and qualified mental-health providers, and we never diagnose, treat, or handle crisis situations.
