"Learning about Optimism and Resilience is so present in this current market and I got a lot of take-aways from the training."
Frances, Participant
For some, the word optimism conjures thoughts of unrealistic, ‘head in the clouds’ type thinking. But that’s not actually optimism.
Optimism is our ability to see possibilities in the difficulties we face, it’s not about being naïve or pretending there aren’t challenges to face.
Research suggests that having an optimistic mindset can improve our performance and resilience, while also protecting us against depression, anxious feelings and even chronic disease.
Unfortunately, an optimistic mindset doesn’t come naturally to many of us due to our negativity bias. The good news is – optimistic thinking is a skill that can be learned so teams can think creatively through the difficulties they face.
Optimising Optimism can be purchased as a standalone session, as part of the full flagship Seven Segments of Wellbeing program or packaged with our popular combination of Renewing Resilience and Amplifying Attitude.
In this highly interactive session, your team will leave with an understanding of:

Our dynamic programs combine refreshing, science-informed insights with practical skills and tools that empower leaders to not only enhance their own wellbeing but also lead their teams more effectively.

There’s never been a more important time to manage psychosocial risks and hazards in the workplace. Don’t be caught out and underprepared for the legislative changes in your state/territory. This highly practical session will provide leaders with the know-how to reduce key risks/hazards in your unique context.
Want your leaders to understand how to create the conditions for a high-performing and productive team? Then look no further. This practical session will leave your leaders with an understanding of what factors impact performance and how to lead with these in mind.
Don’t have the time for your leaders to attend Mental Health First Aid training, but want them to understand how they lead mentally healthy teams? This is a great intro to support modern leaders create the conditions for their teams to thrive.
Organisational change is constant and rapid. To increase the complexity – people respond to change differently. Modern leaders need to understand how their team responds to change, so they can best support their individual needs with understanding and compassion.
Our Wellbeing Programs
We understand that wellbeing is multifaceted, and meaningful change requires time and commitment. That's why we offer an array of practical tools and programs designed to facilitate change management and promote long-lasting employee wellbeing.
Are your team exhausted? They are ‘snapping’ at each other? Now’s the time to beat burnout. One of our most requested topics, this session helps employees understand what burnout is, how to spot it and importantly, practical ways to stay energised.
Restructuring, transforming, re-aligning? Then this is the session for you. Your team will learn the neuroscience of change, practical tools to guide them through uncertainty and complexity, and reflect on their personal response to change.
Empathy fatigue is designed specifically for teams with emotionally demanding roles, tricky stakeholder groups, or those on the front lines. Your team will learn practical tools to build their energy and avoid empathy burnout.
One of our hottest topics does not disappoint. Your team will understand how to use stress to their advantage, and how their view of stress may be impacting them more than the amount of stress they are facing.
Does your team seem to focus on what went wrong and what’s not working? Then Optimism is the session for you. Participants learn the neuroscience of optimism and practical tools to challenge their overly negative thinking habits.
Not sure where to start? You can’t go wrong with this foundational session! Teams learn the skills to not only bounce back but bounce forward from the challenges they are facing – whether that be increased workloads, challenging stakeholders or organisational change.
This engaging session will leave your team with a greater understanding of their own attitudes and if those attitudes are serving them well. Covering both a growth mindset and our stress mindset, there’s a bit in there for everyone.
Now is all about being mindful! Are your team struggling to stay focused in their high-paced roles? Does stress sometimes get the better of them? Then this is the session for you. Teams learn the myth of multitasking and how breathing techniques can support the nervous system in busy periods.
This uplifting session will leave your team feeling connected to themselves and each other. They will leave with an understanding of the powerful health and productivity benefits associated with practising gratitude.
Team feeling pooped? In this session your team will reflect on how they can eat, move and sleep better to lift their energy. They will reflect on how their energy and emotions are connected and how to develop positive relationships that energise, not deplete them.
Could your team do with greater collaboration and understanding of each other? This energising session will leave your team with greater self-awareness of their strengths and what lights them up. While learning to use their ‘superpowers’ wisely.
