Our vision is for all Australian workplaces to be mentally healthy.

So why invest in workplace mental health?

For many of us, a significant portion of our waking hours are spent at work. It’s safe to say the workplace can make a huge impact on quality of life which is why investing in workplace mental health is necessary.

“We have seen a positive impact since staff undertook SuperFriend’s training. People have started to connect. There’s been a shift towards a psychologically safe workplace culture – people understand that health and wellbeing is something that we are serious about.

“We chose SuperFriend because it was just really clear speaking to SuperFriend that you are people who are really genuine, really authentic, easy to talk to – you weren’t trying to bamboozle us with lots of fancy acronyms or language about things. You were truly listening, so it was really a two-way discussion. You genuinely wanted to understand our business, what was going on for us.”

— Jo McManus, Head of People & Performance at Twinings Australia

“We are delighted with the results and they speak volumes. Of the targeted staff, 77% completed the course with 65% of the team stating that they had gained knowledge and better yet, 81% of people said that they intended to implement this knowledge.”

— Amra Broughton, Director, People & Development at Ralph Lauren

"Participating in SuperFriend’s Think Tank was a privilege and an inspiring experience. The information sessions were a great learning experience that made the case for investment in mental health in workplaces. I was particularly interested in the industry wide trends that were revealed through both statistical data and SuperFriend’s survey data.

The facilitated group discussions were a highly insightful way for peers to collaborate around the challenges facing workforces today and tomorrow. I was looking for expert knowledge around the consequences of mental health in workplaces and came away with some actions that I can apply directly."

— Director, Peter Kenny Associates
