‘Resilience’ has become a buzzword and has been overused and, at times, misused to put undue responsibility on individuals rather than systemic change.

However, in parallel with carefully designed organisational change, personal development continues to have a core place in supporting employees to navigate challenges and complexity.

Our unique, personal and relational skills workshops combine solid evidence-base from psychology, neuroscience and health sciences - with creative and innovative approaches to learning.

Client Feedback

  • Jacqui worked on a project run by myself at Sheffield Hallam University and the director of South Yorkshire Filmmakers Network, with a group of Film Media and Production students - Mental Health & Working in Film and TV. Jacqui created and delivered sessions on building personal resilience and accessing resources to overcome mental health challenges at work and handling difficult conversations, scenarios and reasonable adjustments at work. Jacqui was a pleasure to work with and her openness and honesty was refreshing and inspiring. The students really enjoyed and benefitted from her sessions, saying: "always inspirational to hear from Jacqui" and "Jacqui was really informative and made me feel more positive about myself".

  • I worked directly with Jacqui in the delivery of a range of courses, to a variety of client groups. In all cases she proved herself to be able to apply her knowledge of psychology in a practical and helpful way that allows people to tailor it to their own individual circumstances. Jacqui was sensitive to the needs of delegates who have suffered or are suffering from trauma reactions and often helped them to make sense of them and to access the support they need, whilst contributing to culture change in their organisations in relation to psychological wellbeing and support for psychological distress.
