TalkworksIgnoring wellbeing-related challenges in the workplace puts your staff and business at risk.
Working while mentally unwell is 4.5% more common than being absent, affecting performance and turnover. This can financially impact your business and employee wellbeing.
Studies* show managers influence employee wellbeing as much as a spouse or partner. Can you afford to ignore the ROI of equipping leaders to support their teams?

How is Talkworks delivered?Our award-winning Talkworks sessions are immersive workshops that provide your employees with guidance and support.
Our sessions are divided into four key stages:
-
Concrete experience: Doing
-
Effective observation: Reviewing and reflecting
-
Abstract conceptualisation: Learning
-
Active experimentation: Planning and trying it out
Our workshops use specially trained actors who immerse participants in simulated real-life scenarios based on your business. They try out new skills, behaviours and elements of a conversation in a safe environment whilst experiencing the real emotions accompanying their interactions. Talkworks is award-winning and industry recognised for its impact.
By grounding our approach in ‘Do, Reflect, Learn, Try’ – we ensure your employees leave sessions with a renewed perspective around mental health and wellbeing conversations.
