Help our world to thrive through wellbeing-based education and thought leadership.
OUR MISSION
Empower people to become changemakers with evidence-based, high-quality positive psychology and psychotherapy education, research, and professional development that ripples compassion and courage to build thriving communities, organisations, and societies.
POSITIVE ORGANISATIONAL APPROACH (VALUES)
We utilise character strengths to develop psychological capital (H.E.R.O) to harvest positive human potential that create spaces for personal, group and organisational wellbeing.
H.E.R.O AT THE WORKPLACE (CULTURE)
Our Motto is “Be a H.E.R.O” to promote the practice of wellbeing and collaborative culture. H.E.R.O is the acronym for Hope, Efficacy, Resiliency and Optimism. H.E.R.O explores the 4 capacities of psychological states that affect organisational wellbeing, motivation and performance.
