━ WHO THIS PROGRAMME IS FOR
Built for leaders who set the team's tone.
━ WHY THIS MATTERS
Connection is a
leadership skill.
In 2024, global employee engagement fell to just 21% - a signal of a deeper crisis in workplace wellbeing, where disengagement and loneliness quietly erode morale and performance.
Social connection is a key but often overlooked pillar of employee health, directly tied to retention, resilience, and results. The McKinsey Health Institute estimates that investing in holistic employee wellbeing could unlock up to $11.7 trillion in global economic value.
This programme equips managers to build social capital and lead teams that are not just productive, but meaningfully connected - embedding social health into their leadership DNA.

EQ, and RQ in building stronger workplace relationships.
Discover how coaching can strengthen leadership effectiveness. Participants will develop skills in listening, questioning, and reflection, while learning when to coach and when to provide direction.
Explore practical ways to foster belonging and connection at work. Participants will learn how team rituals, norms, and engagement
practices can strengthen relationships and build a more connected culture.
