Employee led

They enable the employee to lead the conversation and focus on the most important things to them.

Supportive

They signpost employees to the most appropriate support.

On-going and dynamic

Wellbeing changes over time, therefore these conversations should be held regularly.

Inclusive

Every employee should have ongoing supportive conversations that enable their unique and diverse personal wellbeing needs to be met.

Establishing psychological safety in working relationships

We believe that building trust is foundational, recognising that it’s the culmination of small, consistent efforts over time. That’s why with Wellbeing Conversations we prioritise the establishment of psychological safety in working relationships. Central to our approach is the appreciation and celebration of differences—acknowledging that each individual brings unique strengths and weaknesses to the table.

Our emphasis is on helping people play to their strengths while supporting growth in areas of weakness. We’re vigilant against language that might discourage open communication, advocating for awareness of unconscious bias and the inclination to judge.

Making time for people, seeking diverse perspectives, and ensuring fairness are woven into the fabric of our program. Join us in creating an environment where every voice is heard, differences are celebrated, and successes are shared.
