Mental Health Training for Managers
Comprehensive wellbeing and leadership training for managers across UK organisations. From mental health awareness and burnout prevention to difficult conversations and leadership development — all CPD certified, all tailored to your organisation.
Managers are responsible for the wellbeing of others — but most have never been trained to do it
Line managers have more influence over employee mental health than HR or senior leadership — yet the vast majority receive no formal training on how to support a struggling team member. The result is costly: poor management is one of the leading drivers of stress, absence, and attrition across UK organisations.
Manager training for every challenge your leaders face
Every session is evidence-based, CPD certified, and tailored to your organisation before delivery. Available in 60 or 90-minute formats — onsite or online.
Mental Health for Managers
Understand mental health conditions, spot early warning signs in your team, hold supportive conversations, and know when and how to signpost to professional help.
Burnout Awareness for Managers
Recognise the early signs of burnout in your team, understand the organisational and individual causes, and build the practical skills to intervene before it becomes a crisis.
Burnout Prevention for Managers
Build the strategies and team culture that prevent burnout from occurring — covering workload management, psychological safety, recovery, and sustainable performance.
Stress Management for Managers
Understand what causes workplace stress, how to recognise it in your team, and the management practices that reduce stress at source rather than simply treating the symptoms.
Anxiety Training for Managers
Develop a confident understanding of workplace anxiety — how it presents, what triggers it, and the evidence-based approaches that help team members manage it effectively.
Turning Stress into Growth for Managers
Reframe how your team relates to pressure and challenge — building post-traumatic growth, resilience, and a team culture that sees difficulty as a source of learning.
Leadership Development Training
Build the self-awareness, communication, and people skills that define effective leaders — grounded in positive psychology and practical management frameworks.
Difficult Conversations for Managers
Develop the frameworks and confidence to navigate sensitive conversations with team members — from performance concerns and conflict to disclosures and mental health.
Goal Setting & Achievement for Managers
Set meaningful goals with your team, maintain motivation over time, and build the accountability structures that turn intentions into measurable results.
Morale & Motivation for Managers
Understand what drives genuine employee motivation, how to maintain morale during difficult periods, and the evidence-based approaches to keeping your team engaged.
Time Management for Managers
Develop the prioritisation and delegation skills that protect your team’s time, reduce overwhelm, and build sustainable ways of working in demanding environments.
AI Change Management for Managers
Lead your team through the anxiety and uncertainty that AI-driven change brings — building psychological safety, clear communication, and a culture ready for the future of work.
Neurodiversity for Managers
Recognise neurodivergent traits, facilitate disclosure conversations, apply reasonable adjustments confidently, and bring out the best in neurodivergent talent.
Menopause for Managers
Understand how menopause symptoms affect performance and wellbeing at work, hold sensitive conversations with confidence, and create a workplace where employees feel supported.
Financial Wellbeing for Managers
Equip managers to recognise financial stress in their teams, hold supportive conversations, and know when and how to signpost employees to appropriate help.
How we deliver manager training
Every session is tailored to your organisation — not delivered off the shelf. Here is what working with us looks like.
Needs Assessment
We start with a free consultation to understand your management population — the challenges they face, your existing L&D provision, and the outcomes that matter most to your people and leadership team.
Programme Design
We recommend the most relevant sessions from our manager training library and tailor the content to reflect your sector, organisational culture, and any specific issues your managers are navigating.
Delivery & Follow-up
Sessions are delivered onsite or online in 60 or 90-minute formats. Post-session manager toolkits and signposting resources help embed the learning and give managers confidence to act.
Manager training investment that reduces absence and retains your best people
Well-trained managers are one of the most effective levers available to organisations. For every £1 invested in workplace mental health — which includes manager training — organisations see £4.70 in return through reduced absence, lower turnover, and improved performance. (Deloitte, 2022)
