Training for people managers
Mental health is the leading cause of long-term workplace absence and the second highest for short-term absence. When wellbeing suffers, performance does too. But when employees feel psychologically safe and supported, they perform at their best. Managers hold the key. Nearly 70% of employees say their manager affects their mental health as much as their partner – more than doctors or therapists. Yet fewer than 29% of organisations provide mental health training. Where training exists, 73% of managers feel confident discussing mental health and signposting support. The gap between manager influence and manager training is widening, and it is costing employees their wellbeing and damaging business performance. That’s why our updated people managers training portfolio is essential for every workplace. Refreshed with relevant content, specific scenarios, and legal guidance, our courses equip managers and leaders with the confidence, skills, and tools to: – Spot early signs of poor mental health before they impact wellbeing and performance – Hold empathetic yet clear conversations that balance compassion with accountability – Create psychologically safe environments where employees feel valued, supported, and able to contribute at their best – Understand policies, practices, and occupational health legislation
