Restorative Practices in the Workplace

Restorative Practices are all about helping people resolve internal and external conflict and tension and repair relationships. Essentially it involves facilitated safe space for what can often be tough conversations. Restorative Practices are trauma-informed and require voluntary participation. Born out of the Restorative Justice movement Restorative Practices are more likely to involve informal processes rather than a formal victim-offender conference. Restorative Practices takes the approach of looking back at what's happened, developing shared understanding about the impact of that in the here and now, and scoping out what a different future could look like. Shared agreements are reached based on shared meaning allowing a transparent framework for all involved to be able to feel safe enough to move forward. 

Develop skills to navigate difficult conversations and enhance resilience. Through a coaching mentoring approach, participants receive guidance in managing stress, building self-confidence and improving communication skills for challenging situations.

Universal Protective Behaviours

Protective Behaviours is committed to two core themes:

Theme One: We all have the right to feel safe at all times

Theme Two: We can talk with someone about anything no matter what it is.

Personal safety is a fundamental right we all have along with a responsibility to respect other people's right to feel safe. Quite often, when conflict and tension arrises it's due to someone not feeling safe nor knowing how or who to talk about it with. We believe that when people feel safe they are far more willing to participate in living an adventurous life without feeling fearful. 

As the founder of Protective Behaviours, Peg West once said: You can't be scared into feeling safe.
