Tech T@lks: Why your mental health is not taboo

Zain Graham • 2 December 2020

Welcome to our new series of Hydrogen Tech T@lks! In this series of video interviews, we will speak openly to various UK tech leaders about a range of different topics around the tech industry, how this is continuously changing and how we can get up to speed with all these fast-paced changes.


In our first interview, Zain Graham, our Technology Recruitment Consultant, discusses with Dan McNeil, Platform & API Director at ComplyAdvantage, how mental health is no longer a taboo subject in the tech industry and how people should start opening up more about how they really feel.


They discuss:

  • How do you create a safe space for the team to talk about mental health while working from home?
  • Leaders aren't bulletproof – how do you ensure the mental health of leaders in your organisation?
  • How recognised is the issue of mental health throughout the hiring process?
