EXPERIENCED. PRACTICAL. EVIDENCE-BASED.
Head Strong Workplaces specialises in the design and delivery of workplace programs that develop the interpersonal effectiveness of leaders; help to create healthy and positive teams; and increase resilience and mental health awareness. Our programs combine psychology, neuroscience and employment law to bring you practical and evidence-based strategies for improving wellbeing and mental health in the workplace.
We utilise our extensive experience as mental health practitioners and the latest research to create experiences that are relevant and interactive, whilst always having a healthy dose of humour. In addition to training, we provide coaching and consultancy services to help you create a 'mentally healthy' workplace.
Leadership Development
Through coaching, training and the use of assessment tools such as the DiSC ™ behavioural profile and the EQ-i ™, Head Strong can help you to develop 'people-focussed' leaders who know how to engage their teams, increase team cohesion and effectively manage performance. In other words, leaders who actually lead.
Positive Teams
It is well known that a positive and healthy team can help to reduce the impact of workplace stress. Head Strong can conduct a team health check to identify what's working and what can be improved in your teams. We also offer training and team building interventions designed to build supportive and connected teams.
Mental Health at Work
Mental health continues to be an important topic in the workplace and beyond. We deliver workshops focussed on developing the skills to support someone who may be experiencing mental health difficulties. Our offerings include Mental Health First Aid courses, as well as shorter programs targeting a specific issue or need.
TESTIMONIALS
"Our organisation is going through major rapid change and in this environment managers need to manage well, but also become leaders who are able to share a vision and then lead with clarity and courage. Sam Sellwood has been training our leadership team over the last 12 months on resilience, caring for yourself, and is now facilitating the 'Mind Leaders' program over the next six months. Sam is a great communicator, connects quickly and easily with individuals as well as the team. Her presenting style is professional and is laced with humour and managers leave each session with great practical tips to take back to their workplace. I highly recommend Sam Sellwood for your business training needs."
