Workshop for leaders and managers

Leading Mentally Healthy Teams

Helping leaders build the skills to support their team’s mental health

Because leaders have more impact than they realise.

Supporting your team’s mental health isn’t just compassionate leadership, it’s good business. This workshop helps leaders understand what mental health really means, how to recognise the early signs someone might be struggling, and how to have supportive conversations without needing to be a psychologist.

Grounded in wellbeing science and real workplace research, the session gives leaders practical, evidence-based tools to build a culture where people feel safe to speak up and thrive.

Questions we get asked

Before you book

Can the workshop be delivered online or in person?
Both. We deliver in person anywhere in Australia, or virtually if your people are spread across sites or you would rather not bring everyone into one room. The content and the activities work either way, and we will talk through which format suits your group when we chat.
Who will facilitate our session?
We have around 20 Be Well Certified facilitators around the country. Being Be Well Certified means we have taken them through the science behind our programs and they deliver our materials. Rather than sending whoever happens to be free, we match a facilitator to your organisation based on the energy of the group and what your people need. You can meet the team here.
How long is the session, and how many people can attend?
Sessions run for one or two hours, and we usually suggest up to 30 people so there is still room for people to talk. If you have a bigger audience in mind, we also do presentations that land better for larger groups.
What does it cost?
Get in touch and tell us what you have in mind. Price varies depending on the format, the duration and the type of session, so once we understand your requirements we will send you a proposal with costing.
How far in advance do we need to book?
We have turned sessions around in a week and we have planned them months out, so there is flexibility. Around four weeks tends to work best. It gives us time to get to know your organisation and match the right facilitator, and it gives you time to get your team or leaders ready for it.
Why should leaders support their team’s mental health?
Team wellbeing is no longer separate to good leadership, it’s central to it. Leaders also have more influence than they may realise. In one large survey, almost 70% of people said their manager has more influence on their mental health than their therapist or doctor.
How common is mental ill-health at work?
Mental ill-health is common, not rare. Nearly 43% of Australians will experience a mental disorder in their lifetime, yet only 56% feel comfortable talking about it at work. Leaders are in a powerful position to change that.
Do leaders need to be mental health experts to support their team?
No. The session shows leaders how to recognise the early signs someone might be struggling and how to have supportive conversations without needing to be a psychologist. The aim is curiosity and support, not diagnosis.
Does this workshop cover psychological safety?
Yes. Understanding the role of psychological safety in helping people open up is part of the session. If you’d like to go deeper, Leading Psychological Safety focuses on it in full.
