What is trauma, and what role does it play in our working lives? How does trauma affect employee productivity and motivation? How do we prevent trauma-related stress and burn out for our employees and ourselves?
In this timely and important session, we’ll explore trauma as a workplace issue and introduce the principles of Trauma-Informed Leadership. By drawing on lived experience, cutting-edge research, and real-world examples, our expert speakers will share practical insights into how trauma can manifest in work settings and what leaders can do to better support employees and themselves.
You’ll hear from Caroline Strawson CMgr CCMI, founder of The Mental Wellbeing Company, who brings personal and professional expertise in trauma recovery and organisational wellbeing, and Professor Maria Mellins, a leading academic in Criminology and Community Safety at St Mary’s University, whose work spans trauma education, domestic abuse, and community support services.
