Do you want to take care of your teams mental health and well-being, but find yourself not knowing where to start or how to make it a priority?

Running your own business can be all-consuming, which is where our expert-led series of workshops comes in.

We are very proud to deliver this series of workshops for small and family business owners and leaders to dedicate valuable time to themselves and their teams mental health - a crucial part of operating and maintaining a successful business.

It is an opportunity to connect with others, and be provided with essential tools and strategies to manage the ever-changing landscape of leading a team and running a business.

By joining this workshop, you will:

Reflect on your business, staff and workplace culture
Learn how mental health and wellbeing can improve retention, productivity and your bottom line
Understand why people maybe struggling or acting in a certain way.
Be shown practical skills in how to support your team and create a mentally health workplace.

This workshop is heavily subsidised* from the Office of Small and Family Business. It will be a mixture of checking in with your experiences, mental health education, looking at wellbeing strategies, learning practical tools and most importantly the discussion, connection, sharing and problem solving with other leaders and business owners who 'get it'.
