Financial Stress Isn’t Wellness. It’s a Leadership Performance Risk.

Most organizations treat financial wellness as a benefit perk. But unresolved financial stress distorts executive decision-making, narrows risk perspective, and quietly drains productivity and retention.

Dr. Melissa Weathersby helps leaders and organizations identify financial stress as a performance variable — not a counseling topic — and build strategic responses that protect decision quality and organizational results.

Her work examining financial stress as a corporate performance risk has been published on Forbes.com.
