Workshop for teams

Optimising Character Strengths

Using strengths to improve wellbeing, performance, and teamwork

Everyone has strengths, but many people aren’t aware of what theirs are, how to use them well, or how they show up at work. This interactive, evidence-based workshop introduces the science of character strengths and helps participants recognise, apply, and balance their strengths in a way that supports both individual wellbeing and team performance.

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.
What happens when strengths go unnoticed at work?
Many workplaces focus on what needs fixing. While this can help solve problems, it often overlooks what helps people and teams perform at their best. This can show up as strengths being underused or overlooked, strengths being overused in ways that create friction, difficulty recognising strengths in others, and misinterpreting behaviours, leading to defensiveness or misunderstanding. Without a shared language for strengths, teams miss opportunities to improve wellbeing, collaboration, and performance.
