These workshops provide managers with a clear overview of key risks, focusing on people and relationship factors such as bullying, exclusion, conflict, and lack of support. In just 2 hours, managers gain the essential awareness to recognise these risks early and understand their role in prevention.
What exactly are psychosocial hazards, and why are they a leadership responsibility?
In just two hours, leaders gain a practical understanding of psychosocial risks and strategies to address them without disrupting their day.
Learn to identify early signs of toxic behaviours such as bullying, harassment, exclusion, and unfair treatment. Managers walk away with a clear framework to spot and respond to people-based risks before they escalate into formal complaints or claims.
Different situations call for different leadership styles. This session helps managers reflect on their default approach and equips them to choose leadership styles that build trust, fairness, and inclusion reducing psychosocial risks linked to poor management practices.
Unresolved conflict is one of the biggest drivers of workplace bullying, stress, and harm. A strong conflict management climate (CMC) reduces these risks by creating shared expectations that conflicts will be addressed fairly, promptly, and constructively. In this workshop, managers explore how to set the tone for respectful resolution, apply consistent processes, and model behaviours that build trust in handling interpersonal issues. By strengthening CMC, leaders not only prevent escalation into bullying or claims but also foster predictability, fairness, and confidence in their teams.
Discover what psychological safety really means in practice: a workplace where people can speak up without fear of punishment or ridicule. This session explores how leaders build trust, inclusion, and respectful relationships which are key elements of psychosocially safe work environments.
Selecting all six Essentials Workshops and scheduling them over a 6–12 month period ensures meaningful, long-term results. Each session builds progressively, allowing participants to implement new insights, refine their approach, and return prepared to advance further.
This structured approach maintains momentum, reinforces behavioural change, and drives measurable improvement in communication, leadership, and team performance.

Workshop Format & Features
Each 2-hour Essentials Workshop includes:
- Interactive learning: case studies, reflection, and discussion.

The Business Case for Psychosocial Safety
- Compliance matters: WHS laws now require proactive management of psychosocial risks.
- People risks are business risks: bullying, exclusion, and poor conflict management drive turnover, absenteeism, and lost productivity.
- The cost of harm is high: the average mental health workers’ compensation claim costs $65,000 and 37 weeks of lost time.
- Prevention pays: upskilling managers is a fraction of the cost of harm.
