Welcome to our monthly toolkit for team leaders — a dedicated space where we share fresh, practical tools to help you lead with clarity, empathy, and impact.
If you've arrived here from our e-newsletter, you're in the right place! Each month, we update this page with new resources designed to support inclusive leadership, enhance team communication, and navigate the complexities of today’s workplaces. This is exclusively for our e-newsletter members and not available from our main website.
Check back regularly for the latest updates to help you grow strong, connected, and resilient teams.
Balancing the demands of work with the wellbeing of your team isn’t always easy. Heavy workloads, tight deadlines, and constant change can take a toll on people’s energy, focus, and overall health.
As a team leader, you play a vital role in recognising these pressures and creating an environment where people can thrive.
Below you’ll find tools and resources to help you better understand your team’s current state, spark conversations, and take practical steps toward a healthier, more sustainable way of working.
We specialise in untangling areas like communication, technology, and workloads, through human-centered methods that are actually kinda fun.
Here's some past requests we've helped untangle...

We have quite a hybrid workforce and it just seems a bit disconnected at the moment. There's so many forms of communication in the organisation, it's a bit of a nightmare. How do we create more of a community and create more cohesion with teams?

We're a small team delivering a high volume of work but our systems suck! We have about 15 different systems and none of them talk to each other. Help!

People are feeling completely overloaded and leadership have suggested stress management training but I'm not sure this is going to fix the issue. How can we deliver a budget-friendly solution that suits everyone?
Values are meant to guide behaviour, shape culture, and build trust. But too often they are disconnected from the real experiences of your team. The Values Toolkit was created to help culture shapers and team leaders close that gap. Find practical, human-centred tools designed to surface what’s working, reveal what’s not, and spark real change.

With multiple teams across locations, communication can quickly become disjointed. We help implement clear, engaging, and interactive communication strategies so that no one feels like they’re working in isolation. When employees feel connected to the bigger picture, engagement skyrockets.
Great leaders don’t appear out of thin air—they’re nurtured. We work with your organisation to identify leadership potential, provide development opportunities, and equip your leaders with the confidence and skills they need to thrive.
Compliance shouldn’t be a never-ending game of catch-up. We help create processes that streamline compliance without overwhelming your teams, ensuring that meeting requirements is efficient, effective, and dare we say—almost painless.
Feedback is only valuable if it leads to action. We help design systems where feedback isn’t just collected—it’s acknowledged, acted upon, and communicated back to the team. Employees feel valued when they see real results, which boosts morale and engagement. Just ask our clients!
We get it—boards think big picture, leadership handles day-to-day operations, and sometimes they don’t quite see eye to eye. We facilitate stronger communication and alignment so that both sides work towards a shared vision with clarity and confidence.
