Drama-based training reflects the true work-based culture and how it can transform to create a united team

Values, Standards and Behaviours

Values and behaviour represent the DNA of an organisation and are reflected in what people do and how they do it. A healthy organisational culture is exhibited through fairness and respect, which can significantly influence performance and attitude. Our methodology aims to involve people in an organisation-wide conversation, looking at new ways to model involvement and engagement.

We bring to life the reality of workplace culture, exploring what is presently done and how it can be transformed by:

Staff surveys and organisational climate assessments are valuable tools to gather the experience and opinion of staff on a range of themes to ascertain the ‘climate’ of the organisation. We deliver a programme to equip focus group leaders with facilitation, assessment and reporting skills to encourage staff to confidently articulate their honest views and lived experiences.

To truly embed an inclusive behaviour culture there needs to be a whole organisation approach, founded on trust and psychological safety, without this there will be a communal fear of calling out unacceptable behaviours. Although there is a lot of importance to inclusive leadership training, as the leaders are often role-modelling the standards, what is often overlooked is the individual and collective responsibility of inclusive behaviours in the workplace, looking at the entire organisation rather than just its leaders. It is more likely the individual employee will be a bystander of unacceptable behaviours, if not experiencing it first-hand.

An organisation wide implementation of inclusive behaviours can prevent, bullying, harassment and discrimination. Other benefits to an employee and the wider organisation are:

Sense of belonging
Gives the employees a voice.
Psychological safety
Mental Health
Feeling that skills and abilities are valued.
Healthier work environment
Better productivity and outcomes
Reduced absenteeism.

This training will include:

Raising awareness and understanding of why diversity is important to everyone

Discussions exploring language and behaviour

Identifying behaviour that doesn’t support inclusion

Building confidence and skills to challenge inappropriate behaviour

How to recognise bullying, harassment and discrimination

Exploring unconscious bias and the affects on behaviour, decision making and interactions with others

Reinforcing the individual responsibility of inclusivity.
