They know they win if the team wins. - Mental health is wealth - I am very open about all the tools I have sought out over the years and the services I use to keep my mental health in good order - I realised I was Gay due to therapy in my 30s. I take a vested interest in my teams mental health and make sure that they feel supported both professionally and personally to get support they need, and that I am approachable no matter the challenge. In my experience it makes good business sense to invest properly in practices and tools that support employees in both their physical and mental health.
