Trauma Informed Leadership, Teams and Culture

Trauma Informed Leadership, Teams and Culture is a one-day leadership program for organisations, teams and leaders looking to create psychologically safe cultures so people and productivity can flourish.

Trauma informed leadership assumes interpersonal trauma is pervasive, real, present in people, organisations and cultures; and needs to be understood, acknowledged and integrated from all parts of the organisation.

The program
Participants will safely and engagingly learn:
  • What is trauma informed leadership and why does it matter?
  • How the autonomic nervous system rules behaviour – individually and collectively.
  • How to create and maintain psychologically safe cultures and understand psychosocial hazards in a trauma context.
  • Recognising and managing state change in self and others during feedback and big conversations.
  • How, why and when boundaries are critical to leadership and how to set them.
  • A trauma informed leadership toolkit to measure and operationalise learnings.
The outcomes
Delivered by Dr Polly McGee, this workshop can help you understand:
  • What informs their leadership style and how that has been shaped through lived experience.
  • The neurobiology of their autonomic nervous system and how it relates to their way they lead people and belong in teams.
  • The traffic lights of safe to toxic culture.
  • How to practice self-regulation.
  • Deeper understanding of accommodating and including diversity (and why it matters).
  • Continuous feedback and communication tools and strategies to mitigate psychosocial hazard risks
  • Implementable tools to live their lives wholeheartedly in all arenas.

This is one size-fits-one, strengths-based leadership intervention, acknowledging each person’s unique capacities and experiences.

The focus is on growing personal agency, accountability and autonomy to lead with agility from all parts of values-based organisations.

Facilitated by Dr Polly McGee:
Who is the program for?
