I found the Psychosocial Risk Management Masterclass to be very informative and a real thought starter. Tessa and Kevin did a great job to facilitate the course with both having a great depth of knowledge to share with the group. Thank you for the tools shared over the course of the masterclass which will be very useful as I work with the wider Coles Express leadership team on our continued journey to ensure a psychologically healthy work environment.

I would recommend all business leaders, WHS professionals and government inspectors enroll in this training.

I liked the fact that it was practical and examples I could relate to were used. It was also full of exercises… everything I wanted was actually covered in detail.

Alexis Wray – Assistant Director Psychosocial

I highly recommend this training which guides participants through the scientifically validated steps to identify and understand psychosocial hazards at work, assess the risks and put in place practical actions to improve psychological safety for everyone. I came away full of ideas and inspiration. A much needed addition to the ubiquitous physical safety interventions.
