Embrace Your Leadership Role

Shaping people-first managers.

Despite UK businesses spending an average of over £10M on wellbeing initiatives,
staff wellbeing is at an all-time low*

We created The Human Leader
to reverse this trend.

82%

of managers have had
no formal training.

70%

of people said that
managers had the same impact
on wellbeing as partners.

33%

of managers feel
out of their depth.

Managers are human too.

Workplaces need to change for the better. We have an epidemic of loneliness, increasing anxiety and mental health challenges, exacerbated by our working environments and cultures.


Too much effort is spent managing the symptoms of poor wellbeing at work instead of solving the root causes. And it’s the humans in your teams that suffer.

The stats don't lie.

For 70% of people, managers have the same impact on wellbeing as partners. Managers influence the employee experience for better or worse through:

The working environment

The team culture

Levels of trust and psychological safety

Shaping how things get done

Role modelling how people interact & collaborate

Our reason why.

The impact on people of the relationship with their manager creates ripples beyond the individual – into their families, their team and the wider organisation.

 

However many organisations still treat wellbeing as a siloed HR function, missing the opportunity to integrate wellbeing into daily ways of working and interacting.


Managers aren’t therapists but they are human. 

 

They need support and guidance to grow as confident managers; balancing the needs of their team with the demands of the senior leadership team.

 

The Human Leader empowers these high impact, people-first managers.
