SIMON DOWLING – collaborative leadership advisor, speaker and author
Any organisation serious about high performance must ensure its people are willing and able to contribute ideas, challenge the status quo, and try new things without fear of failure. We ask our people to show up and deliver the best version of themselves – but, too often, organisations don’t create a culture that makes that possible. So where do we go wrong and what do we do about it?

JIMI HUNT – mental health change maker, author and adventure seeker
We tend to treat mental health like an on/off switch, you have it or you don’t. It doesn’t work like that, we all have mental health and sit somewhere on a continuum, slip too far down that continuum and you start to have poor mental health.
It’s in every organisation’s best interest to ensure every employee is as mentally fit as possible and not just attempt to fix a problem with someone who is mentally ill or experiencing poor mental health. Alongside the numerous benefits to the individual of improving the overall wellness of your people, investing in the mental wellbeing of your employees increases productivity, innovation and ideas as well as reducing sick days, turnover, bullying and in-fighting.
Jimi flicks the switch to get everyone on the same page about proactively trying to increase the mental fitness of their employees and making actual change within their organisations. Jimi will guide you through the why and how to do this, explaining how to be 1% better every day and giving practical advice and tools on how to achieve this by:
