BEING
AN UPSTANDER
The behaviour we walk past is the behaviour we accept. Sometimes it’s just easier to ignore inappropriate, unreasonable or dubious behaviour. In a workplace, your employees morally shouldn’t. Your leaders legally can’t.

BEING
AN UPSTANDER
The behaviour we walk past is the behaviour we accept. Sometimes it’s just easier to ignore inappropriate, unreasonable or dubious behaviour. In a workplace, your employees morally shouldn’t. Your leaders legally can’t.
Being an Upstander requires a practical toolkit - winging it rarely works in the face of inappropriate behaviour. We impart the tools to kindle curiosity and spark involvement by immersing learners in real, messy moments. Our facilitators and corporate actors hook participants in with authentic scenarios and invite learners to reflect, contribute to discussion and build their confidence to act when it matters most.
Corporate Plays
Behaviours must be seen to be understood. We explore how silence signals acceptance and how speaking up shifts culture. Bringing upstander actions to life through customised corporate plays enriched with interaction helps participants feel the stakes, not just understand them.
Dynamic Facilitation
We’re shaping cultures of courage to unlock the full potential of everyone on your team. Our facilitators empower participants to speak up, support others and lead the shift toward respectful workplaces.
Upstander Conversations
Practice now to speak up when it counts. In our conversation exercises, learners work with our actors and facilitators to rehearse Upstander interventions. Communication techniques are refined, “Call It” moments are navigated with clarity and ways to meaningfully “Support” others are developed.
"I would just like to pass on to your team a huge thanks in the delivery of the Upstander Training conducted on site. All correspondence from the crews at this morning’s prestart is that it was one of the best delivered training packages they have been involved in and it has allowed them to gain a better understanding around bullying and harassment in the work place, but also how to deal with situations outside of work as well."
