Thriving organisations need thriving people

As psychologists, we’ll help your people get back to their best, giving them the tools to build resilience and wellbeing.

Where to start?

In so many of the conversations we’ve had recently, we hear that teams and individuals are struggling. The impact of the pandemic, major organisational change and wider economic uncertainty are all having an effect on people’s personal and work lives, leaving them tired, stressed and burnt out.

When your people feel like that, it’s not surprising that your organisation is facing significant challenges around absence, turnover or attraction of the best talent.

With so much on your plate and everyone feeling exhausted, it’s hard to know where to start. While there are no quick fixes, prioritising the wellbeing and resilience of your staff is a great place to begin. If you really want to put your people first, we’re here to help.

"Employee Wellbeing is a Human Imperative"
According to Forbes, employee wellbeing is the #1 HR trend for 2023.

Poor employee wellbeing is a significant contributor to a number of familiar organisational challenges:

  • High turnover
  • Difficulty attracting new talent
  • Increased absence
  • Low morale
  • Poor productivity

Forward-thinking employers know just how important staff wellbeing and resilience is. They’re motivated not just by the organisational benefits, but also by the opportunity to improve the lives of their people.

People (and organisations) can learn and adapt

While there might be unprecedented challenges, the good news is that human beings are very capable of learning, developing and overcoming adversity.

"Although the world is full of suffering, it is also full of the overcoming of it."
― Helen Keller

In our experience, people want to feel stronger, happier and healthier, but often just don't know where to start. Even when they do know what they should be doing differently, making lasting change is often difficult.

That's where we come in. Our range of thought-provoking and practical workshops are designed to build the personal resources of your people, so that they’re better able to manage short-term challenges and develop habits that will boost their wellbeing longer term.

We recognise that everyone has a wealth of strengths and resources to build on, so our friendly and experienced team of psychologists help people notice and build on what’s already working well for them.

Your employees can't do it alone

While delegates find our workshops hugely valuable, they are only one part of an effective wellbeing strategy. We shouldn’t expect employees to take sole responsibility for their wellbeing when factors beyond their control might be having a significant impact.

If you'd like our support to build an environment that enables people to be at their best, please get in touch.

A team you can trust

At Work Positive, our focus is on how we can best use psychology to make the most of people’s strengths, build on what’s working and cultivate a climate where people flourish.

Our workshops are designed to inspire the people in your organisation, giving them the tools to be at their best more of the time and helping them bring the best out of others.

With our team of experienced Chartered Psychologists, you're in safe hands.

Your people are worth it

When your people are thriving at work it makes a huge difference. An effective wellbeing strategy can positively impact your customer satisfaction, talent acquisition and retention, productivity, absence and profitability.

Perhaps even more importantly, it will help your employees cope with adversity and lead happier, healthier lives.

Becoming Resilient

The daily grind can get us all down. Prolonged exposure to stress and pressure can have a profound impact on long term health, motivation and work performance. But small things can make a big difference: Building on our personal strengths; maximising our relationships and shaping our environment to promote healthy behaviours can revolutionise how we think and how we work. If you are looking for a practical session that will help participants build powerful, long-term wellbeing strategies, this is it!
