Ian Dodd is a leading activist for workplace reform and the CEO of The Lazarus Practice. Recognised for his ability to solve complex problems, Ian has held leading roles at many of the world’s largest, notable, and most innovative firms. In his current position, Ian has harnessed both his professional and lived experience to design effective mental health services for those seeking to build mental health resilience, or recovering from mental health conditions or injury. He is also active in helping those experiencing mental health injuries perpetrated by employers to navigate recovery of health and, if appropriate, the personal injury claim path. Beginning his career in product development at P&G and PepsiCo, Ian transitioned into consultancy at PwC and, later, Capital One. He then shifted focus to talent acquisition, people, and organisational performance, holding senior roles at Skype, Microsoft, and Expedia. At the latter, Ian provided leadership to HR service delivery for 15,000 employees in over 40 countries, while simultaneously leading the people and organisational workstreams for the firm’s M&A activity and blitz-scaling revenue teams across the APAC region. In 2018, Ian moved to Goldman Sachs, where he was responsible for overseeing its global talent pipeline. He filed a personal (psychological) injury claim against the bank in 2022, motivated by the desire to stand and be seen, by doing so, add momentum to the conversation around employees' mental health in the workplace. Ian obtained his bachelor’s qualification at the University of Liverpool, studying Chemistry (BSc). He also has a doctorate in Physical Chemistry (PhD) from the same university. Ian is campaigning for employers to move away from superficial mental health programmes to deeper disclosures about the impact of their business on their employees' mental health, the effectiveness of their response to this impact, and the quality of support extended to those affected by psychological injury. Ian is also working to establish a confidential, secure, and robust independent platform that will allow victims who have experienced injury to share their stories. He believes this will reveal the true scale of the problem – its catastrophic human costs – and generate the necessary dialogues. For Ian, serial perpetrators of mental health harm need to be held accountable.Ian is already supporting others who are or have experienced psychological injury in their workplace and is very happy to speak to others looking for support – he welcomes all messages on this subject.
