About

Employee wellbeing and leadership consultancy

We are a boutique consulting firm focused on strengthening company wellbeing. Our core beliefs are that change starts at the top and there’s no one-size-fits-all approach to mental health. While a webinar on stress management or a meditation app is helpful, it won’t make a notable difference, especially, when there are larger concerns such as burnout, lack of role clarity, or high employee turnover. That’s why we’ve developed a three-step system that pinpoints organization-specific areas of improvement, helping managers drive real change.

Measure & Reflect

We start by collecting employee well-being data through anonymous and scientifically validated surveys. This allows us to identify areas of improvement, create reports and hold reflective meetings with managers.

Train & Consult

We conduct tailored management training events and one-on-one leadership coaching. This approach helps managers identify unhelpful behaviors in themselves and recognize warning signs of wellbeing issues.

Engage & Improve

After a careful analysis of the mental health landscape and leadership consulting, we shift our focus to employees by increasing mental health awareness through interactive events and communication campaigns.
