What it is

The people you can least afford to lose leave first

Burnout in justice and treatment settings is not a wellbeing poster problem. It is a retention problem, and the staff who carry the most tend to go first, taking years of relationships with them.

Wellness training gives teams something practical: what secondary trauma does, how it shows up in a caseload, and what actually helps. Retreats give them the thing training cannot, which is time away from the building with enough structure that the day goes somewhere.

Workshops and facilitated focus groups follow the same principle in a shorter shape, and are often used before a service change or after a critical incident.

Who it is for

Where it tends to help

Leadership teams

A day to look at culture, workload and the distance between the policy and the practice.

Whole staff teams

A retreat that rebuilds relationships between people who have only seen each other under pressure.

Focus groups

A facilitated ninety minutes to hear what a team, or a group of participants, actually thinks.

What to expect

Shaping a day or a retreat

Scoping call

What is the question, who needs to be in the room, and what is off the table.

Design

We propose a shape and a running order. You edit it until it fits.

3

Facilitation

We hold the day. Breaks are real, and nobody is made to perform.
