Event information

The UCT Graduate School of Business is dedicated to not only forging but also growing the business leaders of tomorrow. We are proud to host a set of workshops titled "LeadWell: Nurturing Mental Health for Leadership Excellence."

 Most conventional leadership talks, workshops and seminars focus on leading others and helping leaders maximise the productivity and performance of their teams and organsiations. However, these workshops help leaders maximise their productivity and performance by adopting tools and practices that place their mental health and resilience at the forefront of their leadership practice. Because culture starts at the top, and healthy and happy leaders create productive teams and high-performing organisations.

 Workshop 1 (FREE) titled Building the Foundations of Leadership Wellbeing, this introductory session, will examine the real impact of leadership responsibilities in the current leadership context, take a closer look at burnout, and begin to explore what sustainable wellbeing practices might look like in your personal and professional environment.

 The workshops are live interactive virtual sessions, each lasting three hours, and the remainder three workshops are as follows:

  •  Workshop 2: Cultivating Self-Care Foundations (07 August 2024) – understanding the power and importance of self-prioritisation, and exploring the neurological implications of self-care. (Paid Event)
  •  Workshop 3: Introducing the LeadWell Mental Health & Wellbeing Vaccine (17 October 2024) – in which LeadWell’s mental health ‘vaccine’ is explained, and the value of vulnerability, compassion, and connection is explored. (Paid Event)
  •  Workshop 4: Administering the LeadWell Mental Health & Wellbeing Vaccine (14 November 2024) – where delegates come to grips with mindset techniques, personal energy management, and are given tools and techniques to sustain insights gained throughout this transformative journey. (Paid Event)

 The workshops are delivered by clinical psychologist and leadership development specialist, Lauren Davis, who has more than two decades of experience in helping leaders find their purpose, unleash their passion and fulfil their potential. There is no charge to attend session 1.

                                                                       Invest in yourself today; LeadWell tomorrow.
