inspiring change &
Transformation
For a FUTURE FOCUSED WORKPLACE
Our Story
Over many years of working around the world, in a vast array of industries, businesses and environments, we noticed common themes running through nearly every workplace – ineffective communication, lack of trust & respect, and poor leadership skills. The result was often accidents, poor wellbeing, physical and mental distress, job dissatisfaction and ultimately stagnant business growth with limited resilience.
Yet other workplaces shone out as a way to do things differently, where we saw inspiring leadership and workplace cultures of trust and respect, of thriving and innovative business.
We recognized they focused on three critical areas:
- Safety
- Education
- Wellbeing
We believe all workplaces can be like this. that through a focus on developing inspirational leadership and taking a more people-centred approach business can transform themselves and be more adaptable to future challenges and change.
Using the most appropriate and practical approach to your safety needs whilst seeking to incorporate the essential element of psychological safety in the workplace we offer a range of solutions to help your people and your business to grow.
We work with you to develop a tailored solution to meet your unique needs, to help your people and your business grow and reach their potential.
Everyone has the right to live and work free from harm. We believe that people are the solution, not the problem.

Susanne Dick
Counsellor
Susanne has worked in the UK and Australia supporting people to achieve better mental wellbeing so they can navigate life’s ups and downs and have a better quality of life.
She has experienced many work environments where people thrived, but many more where people did not feel psychologically safe; significantly impacting people’s mental health. The mental distress we experience in the workplace does not stay at work – we take it home. Where it affects our relationships, our family and every other aspect of our life.
1 in 2 people will suffer a period of poor mental health during their lifetime. The impact to the individual can be huge. The cost to employers can be substantial too; through loss of productivity and high levels of sickness absence.
We all go through difficulties at some point in our lives and getting the right support at the right time is key to better outcomes for everyone, not just for the individual. Supporting individuals and employers to establish and maintain a psychologically safe workplace is vital for a healthy life, and a healthy workplace, where both individuals and businesses thrive.
Susanne believes a psychologically safe workplace is paramount to our overall quality of life.
