Leading Executive Assistance Program (LEAP)
Lead Psychosocial Risk With Clarity, Confidence, and Care
Duration: 3 hours (or ongoing coaching) | Strategic Leadership Workshop
No prerequisites required | In-person or online | Fee based on team size and delivery model | Group sessions, executive coaching, or integration into a full resilience plan
If you’re responsible for an organisation, you’re also responsible for staff safety - including psychosocial hazards.
The LEAP program is designed to equip leaders with the strategic understanding and practical tools to confidently meet their legal obligations - while also shaping a resilient and psychologically safe workplace.
This is not awareness training. It’s an executive-level framework that moves leaders from compliance confusion to confident culture-shaping.
"LEAP helped me cut through the jargon and understand what I actually needed to do as a principal. It was clear, strategic, and delivered with empathy."
- Primary School Principal
"We’d been avoiding psychosocial hazards because we didn’t know where to start. This gave us a roadmap and the confidence to act."
- Director, Government Agency

LEAP helps leaders understand what psychosocial hazard risk management actually requires, design safer systems of work, embed psychological safety into team culture, respond proactively to emerging wellbeing challenges and ireduce defensiveness and increase engagement across the team.

LEAP +Your Psychosocial Hazard Risk Management Plan
LEAP is often delivered as part of a broader PSHRMP (Psychosocial Hazard Risk Management Plan) process. It prepares leaders to:
• Engage confidently in consultation
• Implement new controls effectively
• Lead conversations around mental wellness and resilience
• Shift workplace culture in a lasting, legally sound way
Resilience isn’t a soft skill - It’s a strategic advantage. Psychological safety isn’t optional - it’s essential. And workplaces that get this right aren’t just compliant - they become places where people want to be.
