Changes in behaviour aren't always a matter of attitude or motivation.
When menopausal symptoms are not recognised, workplace signals may be interpreted as stress, reduced motivation or another issue. Better knowledge helps HR, managers and employees start the right conversation earlier and refer appropriately when medical assessment is needed.

From awareness to professional action.
