.....and the time for this to be different is NOW! 

Grief is one of the few things that is universal, and your company should support the people who support your bottom line.

 

With the enormous impact of COVID19 (and even before and now after), companies, employees and families are grieving together. Businesses are becoming acutely aware that many employees are being impacted by loss in larger numbers than ever before.

 

The creation of an open, compassionate and supportive environment, in which employees can express their needs, is critically important. It will also have a positive impact on employee retention and reduce turnover, thus making it an excellent investment.

 

We help your organization navigate the complexities of grief with a customized approach of support to help your teams come out on the other side whole, stable and productive.

 

Here's what we offer...

HUMAN RESOURCES SUPPORT AND TRAINING

Our services for Human Resources professionals include Bereavement Policy Review, Communication Skills for the Bereaved, Transition Considerations, Work Team Support and Train-the-Trainer training for Managers and Supervisors.

MANAGEMENT AND SUPERVISOR TRAINING

The need for Managers and Supervisors to gain understanding of the grief process and its potential impact on an employee is where the support rubber meets the road. We provide training that helps them understand and effectively support employees while offering them coaching when there is a need to successfully navigate complex grief. 

GRIEF PARTNER RECRUITMENT, TRAINING AND RETENTION

We believe every workplace should include a team of people specially trained as Grief Buddies to support the bereaved employee upon return to work. This training includes (but is not limited to) Understanding and Responding to Triggers, Orientation and Support for the Work Team, Communication and developing the Compassionate Eye as well as Task Support. Grief Buddies are priceless in helping to ensure a smooth re-entry for the bereaved.

EMPLOYEE GROUP GRIEF COACHING

 

Our Certified Coaches provide professional facilitation to on-going workplace support groups. We schedule regular meetings with small groups and share skills, tools and exercises that support the bereaved employee to move through the grieving process and achieve a new sense of self.
