New! Work Effectiveness Course

Our new Work Effectiveness Course has been designed to improve performance, health and wellbeing in the workplace. Check out the presentation by downloading it and then viewing it in 'presentation' mode (as it is animated).

Our flagship Work Effectiveness Course has been designed around evidence that shows there are 3 key areas which are central to improved performance in the workplace:
1. Clarity of strengths and values - peak performance doesn't really happen without a clear understanding of strengths and values and alignment with company objectives.
2. Mindful attention - information overload means a need to be able to focus attention on tasks, irrespective of how busy our minds are.
3. Movement - not moving seriously impairs thinking. We teach ways of working which enhance clarity of thought, improve problem solving and reduce stress.

Our basic approach - to improve psychological flexibility and mindfulness - has been scientifically proven to improve performance at work, increasing wellbeing, resilience, innovation and productivity. It also improves the adoption of newly trained skills because it is an approach (rooted in behavioural science) that allows people to deal differently with thoughts and emotions more realistically.

Evidence:
- In a large British media organisation, psychological fleixbility training improved propensity to innovate and staff wellbeing - significantly more than another group who were learned how to control workplace stressors.
- A group of commodities traders were given psychological flexibility training, whilst another was trained in sales protocol. Results from this controlled experiment showed that the psycholgical flexibility group made statistically significantly more money than the other group.
- In 2 separate studies of call centre workers, psychological flexibility training led to improved resilience, decreased sickness absence and improved workplace performance.
