SUMMARY:Practical Wellbeing for People Managers
DESCRIPTION:This programme helps managers understand that supporting wellbeing does not mean having to solve every problem themselves. It means knowing how to respond\, what you can influence\, where the boundaries are\, and when additional support is needed. \nHow do you check in with someone without overstepping? How do you recognise when workload is becoming unsustainable? What can you realistically influence as a manager? And how do you support your team while maintaining appropriate boundaries and looking after your own wellbeing? \nThis practical programme gives managers the knowledge\, confidence and tools to make wellbeing part of how they lead their teams every day\, connecting employee wellbeing with sustainable performance\, psychological safety and healthy ways of working. \nWhat will you learn?\nOver six practical modules\, you will learn how to: \nUnderstand your role in workplace wellbeingExplore the connection between wellbeing and organisational performance\, understand where your responsibilities as a manager begin and end\, and identify the areas you can directly influence within your team. \nCreate greater psychological safetyUnderstand what helps people feel able to speak up\, ask questions\, raise concerns and acknowledge mistakes.

Explore practical approaches to boundaries\, hybrid and flexible working\, and the Right to Disconnect that can work within the realities of your own team. \nBuild wellbeing into the way your team worksMove beyond wellbeing as an occasional initiative. Explore practical approaches to meetings\, check-ins\, team routines and working practices that can support wellbeing without simply adding another task to everyone’s workload. \nKnow what is working – and what needs to changeLearn simple ways to gather feedback and use the information you already have to understand what is happening within your team.
