Early Interventions

Our modular programmes are specifically designed to help people acquire a proven set of skills known to improve health and wellbeing, engagement and performance, even when faced with prolonged periods of pressure and stress

Positive provides an integrated ‘strengths-based’ approach to create positive change by incorporating proven tools and techniques from cognitive and behavioural psychology, ‘positive’ psychology, effective motivational and coaching techniques, along with the latest science from exercise and fitness, nutrition and medicine.

Helping senior managers to gain an understanding of the factors that influence human behaviour and acquire a set of relevant evidence-based skills can help them support colleagues and improve team working.

How people are managed and motivated is a key determinant of individual, team and business performance. Managers who are able to engage and motivate their team are likely to have more resilience, enhanced health and well-being, and demonstrate greater discretionary effort.

For those experiencing periods of stress, early recognition and rapid access to effective intervention will always depend heavily on managers, their understanding, and their ability to address stress related issues. The research confirms that employees cope better, and return to work sooner, if their managers have a greater knowledge of the issues and are more proactive. People-management is crucial.
