December 2023 Newsletter

Dear Readers,

How was your Month of December?

We started December with a Christmas event hosted by our Partners TalentPredix. It was a fun evening filled with lots of delicious food, wine, and my favourite mince pies.

We are offering learners on our Plus and Super Packages access to the Talent Predix Strengths Profiles assessment. Please click below link to find out more details.

We are delivering a session on the 26th January, please get in contact if you would like to join!

Our last webinar for 2023 was on Winter Wellbeing with our key speakers, Dr Jo Burrell and Rachel Austen.

The Key Takeaways were:

  • The webinar delved into the unique challenges faced by HR professionals, shedding light on their impact on mental health and overall wellbeing.
  • Dr. Jo Burrell shared insights from the HR Mental Wellbeing Survey 2023, offering profound insights into the struggles experienced by HR professionals.
  • A key focus was placed on evidence-based wellbeing support, with the aim of encouraging targeted assistance for HR professionals on a broader scale.
  • Rachel Austen, a chartered occupational psychologist, provided expertise on burnout prevention, highlighting the five stages and sharing signs to be aware of.
  • AURA, a scientific tool designed by Rachel Austen, was introduced to recognize and address stress warning signs early, with a focus on fostering resilience.
  • The webinar explored proactive measures that organisations can take to manage stress and promote healthy performance among their teams.
  • The free mindfulness/mediation session from Giedre made everyone feel so relaxed and ready to face all challenges ahead… including the Christmas Rush!

We were also informed about how stressed HR professionals are from the Wellbeing Survey by Ultimate Resilience. It’s clear that we need to be focusing on our health much more than we are currently!

All listeners were treated to a meditation session on ‘Breath’ encouraging us to reconnect with ourselves and recognise how our breathing can have a positive impact on our health.

We would like to share this meditation audio with our readers as we encourage you to take 20 minutes out of your day for self-care! Click the below mentioned link to access.

Our next webinar will be on Thursday, 1st February 2024. Our guest speaker will be 🔹 Vicky Stanton PCC ICF Coach FCIPD. This webinar will focus on ‘Vision, Goal setting, and 90 day planning for a successful 2024‘. Please put this in your calendar and join us! Register here for FREE.

On the solutions side of the business, we have been busy working on collating feedback from a Well-being survey and recognising some of the small issues that can arise when there are no mechanisms in place to voice employee concerns.

Our well-being survey does an in-depth analysis of the key challenges that are present in the workplace as a crucial first step to putting in place the right interventions that will support lasting wellbeing. We will uncover the key sources of staff stress in the organisation and identify clear steps to overcome them.

If you are a growing organisation and you recognise Well-being as an issue within your organisation. We would love to assist with clarity around what needs to be done and assist in setting some clear frameworks for success. Click the below mentioned link to book a FREE Audit session.

Lastly, we would like to wish all our readers a wonderful start to 2024!
