30 October 2020: Your People Potential is back in the classroom
Meet the trainer:
- Support your people to reach their potential.
- When you think you need a new strategy.
- When someone is going through distress.
- When conflict is inevitable. Or you’re worried about compliance.
- You’ll be ready. So will they. [And we’ll be there for you.]
- We exist to make worker wellbeing a priority.
- Wellbeing at work isn’t about relaxation and candles.
- It’s about dealing with mental health, stress and inequality head-on.
- It’s about keeping your best talent and IP. And boosting productivity.
- We believe in learning.
- Learning isn’t an off-the-shelf job, or a one-off.
- It’s a custom-made process for each individual. And it’s ongoing.
- We believe in compassion — that’s what you need when the heart’s lost passion.
- Because everyone has the right to be happy at work.
- And good businesses deserve to prosper.
- We believe in HR. They know your people.
- Equip them and they will help you hit your targets.
- And you’ll create a healthy, happy, positive culture.
- Where your people feel satisfied, respected and secure.
- Where they are steadfast, sociable and devoted.
- Where wellbeing is a priority.
- That’s how you impact the bottom line.

Training with Cambridge Network: Understanding and Promoting Good Mental Health at Work

Training with Cambridge Network: Support for Mental Health First Aiders
This 2-hour workshop will provide you with an opportunity to share your experiences, identify the skills that need to be developed to support you better and opportunities to build your resilience as a Mental Health First Aider.
The role of the Mental Health First Aider is sometimes misunderstood, with the best will in the world you are not a trained counsellor or therapist, and yet, people can end up offloading and sharing more with you than you feel comfortable handling. This can result in people taking on too much of other people’s emotional baggage, which can lead to burn out.
Ultimately, MHFA is as effective and as limited in what it can achieve as traditional first aid. We do not expect traditional first aiders to take the place of paramedics, doctors or nurses, nor should we expect Mental Health First Aiders to take the place of counsellors or therapists.
The workshop is facilitated by a trained therapist who will support the group discussion and deliver training to build confidence and resilience. This is a collaborative approach to supporting Mental Health First Aiders to avoid burn out and build resilience.

Management Development for Employee Engagement: Open Courses and In-House Training
The most important factor in employee engagement is the relationship between the employee and their manager. If your business promotes the best technicians into management positions without providing any training in people skills then you are likely to have disengaged employees.
Your People Potential runs a series of workshops for managers to ensure that your people managers have the right soft-skills to manage people effectively (which are actually hard skills to master).
The programme is delivered over 12 half-day workshops. Training is aimed at managers without formal management development training. These workshops are based on the competencies needed to enhance employee engagement.
Training objectives:
At the end of the series of workshops your managers will:
- Have an open, fair and consistent approach to management
- Be able to manage themselves and their own emotions effectively
- Handle conflict and problems as they arise
- Have the ability to communicate well at all levels of the business
- Manage with empathy and consideration
- Understand others and be able to build trust and respect within the team
- Support and encourage employee development
Managers are expected to apply their learning into the workplace between workshops and be prepared to share their experiences with others to help hone and refine their skills.
