Creating a Culture of Hope, Engagement & Wellbeing
We thrive in situations where we feel secure, valued and appreciated. Research suggests there is a direct reciprocal relationship between learning outcomes and wellbeing.
What if your school could create a culture of excellence simply by focusing on what students and staff did well, rather than worrying about they did wrong? Even better, what if it was relatively simple because there were no new processes to learn or habits to break. You simply build upon natural neural pathways.
Strengthen Your Future is a program of workshops, seminars and focus sessions. We use tools developed by leading American researcher Gallup to help individuals and teams identify innate patterns of thought, emotion and behavior. These talents offer key codes to success.
Developing innate talent into mature strength builds confidence. It feels natural. It allows a person to participate in a journey of self-discovery and recognise their place in a wider system.
Our core workshops include:
- An Introduction to Strengths-based Schools
- Using a Strengths-Based vocabulary in Teaching and Learning
- Building an Engaged Team pt 1 – complimentary partnerships
- Building an Engaged Team pt 2 – understanding team DNA
