Corporate Training & Workplace Workshops

Create safer, stronger, trauma-aware organisations.

Too often, workplaces don’t know how to respond when someone discloses violence or harm. The result? People fall through the cracks. Systems fail. Reputations suffer. And lives are impacted.

We deliver real, practical, evidence-based training that helps organisations move beyond compliance and into culture change. Led by Liana Papoutsis, a nationally recognised expert in psychosocial safety and gendered violence, our sessions are bold, trauma-informed, and deeply human.
