Corporate Wellbeing Coaching Programme

Tailored strategies to enhance employee wellbeing and productivity, combining assessment, personalised coaching, team workshops and ongoing support.

STEP 1

Initial assessment

A wellbeing questionnaire and individual consultations identify strengths, challenges and goals, leading to personalised recommendations.

STEP 2

1:1 coaching

Six 60-minute sessions per person, designed around the needs and challenges the assessment reveals.

STEP 3

Group workshops

Collaborative learning that builds skills and supportive networks across the team.

STEP 4

Ongoing support

A tailored wellbeing toolkit and continued access to resources and guidance, so improvements last.

Coaching topics may include

Every programme is shaped by the assessment, so each person works on what matters most to them and to the business.

The business case

What wellbeing programmes can deliver

Research consistently links well-run wellbeing programmes with stronger business results.

Retention

People are more likely to stay where they feel supported, protecting you from the cost of losing experienced staff.

Productivity

Teams that handle pressure well can focus, collaborate and deliver more consistently.

Attendance

Tackling stress early helps reduce sickness absence and burnout-related time off.

Return

Together, these gains mean wellbeing programmes are widely reported to deliver a positive return on investment.

Every organisation is different, so at the start we agree the measures that matter most to your practice and review them as we go.

Your coach

From inside the architecture industry

I've worked in the architecture industry for over five years, after 15 years in professional business services, and I've seen first-hand what ambition and drive inside a high-pressure industry can do to people without the right support.

After experiencing burnout in my own corporate career, I decided to become the support I wanted to see. Today I help architects and leaders thrive in a way that feels good for them — bringing more impact and innovation, and building high-performing teams that generate more revenue for their companies.
