Mental Fitness

We can speak on more than 100 topics to help leaders and employees develop knowledge and skills to cope with stress and learn how to spend more time flourishing than languishing. 

Leadership

We support leaders to become psychologically safe leaders and create psychologically safe teams. We have numerous programs to support leaders on topics such as managing a hybrid workforce, work demand, burnout, performance management, and inspiring trust. We are equipped to create customized leadership content and programs to meet employers’ needs and objectives.

Diversity & Inclusion

We have access to leading experts in diversity and inclusion who look at the workplace through a trauma-informed lens. We design curriculums and conduct workplace research. This helps us understand the role of diversity and inclusion in workers’ experience to discover how the workplace can reduce trauma, implicit bias, racism, and oppression. Research helps us discover the steps necessary for creating a workplace where all workers feel welcomed, valued, and understood. 

Preparing professionals to facilitate workplace mental health/psychological safety

This training is for HR and OHS leaders, union representatives, and mental health committee members assigned to facilitate workplace mental health and psychological safety. This program is delivered regionally to a group of employers who send individuals or teams to enhance their workplace mental health-psychologically safe facilitators’ skill sets. We offer these workshops through associations and conference planners who approach Dr. Bill Howatt to lead them. Contact us to explore the kinds of programs we can offer this population via an in-person, half- or full-day event led by Dr. Howatt.
