Building a Culture of Wellbeing - Strategies Included

👂 1. Actually, Ask Your Team

  • Regular surveys (anonymous = honest)

  • One-on-one check-ins

  • Trial stay interviews

  • Ask what’s working and what’s missing

🌿 2. Remove the Blocks to Wellbeing

  • Fix toxic behaviours (no matter who’s doing them)

  • Provide clarity on performance and expectations

  • Get serious about flexible working

  • Promote boundaries - not burnout

🛠️ 3. Put It Into Practice

  • Create a simple wellbeing policy

  • Fund or subsidise EAP/wellbeing services

  • Recognise wins - not just output

  • Build psychological safety into your leadership style

🧠 What We See Working

The best cultures we’ve helped build aren’t fluffy. They’re grounded, consistent, and led by example. Culture lives in what you tolerate as much as what you encourage.
