For all SBT learners, the available resources will ensure you can develop with confidence.

Individual differences

Understanding why people are the way they are is a core mission for psychologists. All our psychologists work with individuals, teams and organisations to better understand the workings of the individual and collective human mind. Our work in this area enable us to provide useful insights into human behaviour underpinned by a vast amount of research and evidence.

Leadership & management

They say, a leader is a leader is a leader. Our research has shown that not all leaders are the same and some are just better at it than others. Our work has also shown that great leaders make all the difference to the way people see the world of work and how well they perform during good and pressured times. We have a range of resources that enable leaders and managers to get the most from those that they lead and/or manage.

Learning & Development

A key challenge for the modern organisation is how to enable growth and avoid fixed mindsets. The answer to this challenge is through development of a culture that has positive impacts on employees along with associated systems that support the recording and sharing of learning in a safe way. We have a range of resources that enable leaders and managers to better understand culture and the influence they have on achieving positive change. Our resources also help leaders to enable those they lead to become more confident and effective at work.

For SBT trainers, the available materials will ensure your delegates can apply their learning immediately.

For SBT learners, the available resources will ensure you can develop with confidence.

Teams & Group working

Do many hands make light work? You would think this is the case. Our work with teams illustrates that team working should not be automatically seen as being synonymous with higher or better performance. Teams do need work. There are a few fundamental requirements to get the most from a team, one of the most important is the notion of trust.

For SBT trainers, the available materials will ensure your delegates can apply their learning immediately.

For all SBT learners, the available resources will ensure you can develop with confidence.

Building an effective team

Team based working is increasingly being used at al l levels of an organisation; teams have the potential to gain competitive advantage and deliver optimal performance outcomes. However, just because we describe people as belonging to a team does not mean that the team functions effectively. Effective team work takes effort! This training course will enable leaders to better understand the nature of team working and why it is important within the workplace. Recognise the stages of team development and the best strategies for management. Understand the inputs, processes and outputs associated with successful teams. Learn how to build team identity and cohesion through trust as well as explore the dark side of teams and where action can be taken to improve dysfunctional behaviours.

Creating a mentally healthy workplace

We all appreciate that mental health is a complex issue, and this training is not about looking at the clinical aspects of mental health. Instead, this training is used to consider how events can influence mental health either for better or worse and to consider what role leaders/managers play in this dynamic interaction. There is a twin focus to this training; 1) how leaders/managers can influence the mental health of those around them and 2) how leaders/managers can manage their own mental health. All courses come with various handouts, diagnostics and access to resources.

Debrief Facilitator

The importance of not only facilitating debrief sessions but also training individuals to facilitate them effectively should not be underestimated. The manner in which debrief sessions are facilitated can lead to the difference between participants feeling fearful, anxious and threatened or them feeling as though they contributed towards a positive, developmental and learning process. Debrief sessions which are facilitated in an effective manner are also important for shifting the focus away from blame and more towards learning and development as well as protecting staff from the potentially negative impact of traumatic or stressful incidents. Debriefing can be a useful way of establishing lessons learned and also helping to support staff and check their welfare after an incident at work. This training programme will enable debrief facilitators to develop the skills and behaviours that are conducive to effective debrief facilitation.

Leading a Healthy Workforce

The way in which our work is managed/coordinated and the way in which we are led and lead has an impact on our health and well-being. Through developing a greater awareness of psychological and/or mental health at work we will be in a much stronger position to protect and promote individual as well as collective health, well-being and performance. This training module uses an explorative approach to look at the notion of how leaders can take action to create a psychologically (and physically) healthier workforce.
View Course
Supportive Leadership and Management Behaviour

The Supportive Leadership and Management Behaviour course will help you understand what leader/manager behaviours are important for the prevention and reduction of stress, sickness absence and other health and well-being challenges in those being managed. The course will help you to identify which of these behaviours are already part of your management approach and which you will need to develop. Leaders will have an opportunity to review and practice key behaviours as well as access key resources to help consolidate their learning.
