Why start here

Understand what is needed before deciding what to do

Plenty of organisations have activity. Fewer have a coherent picture of what's happening, what's causing it, what's already working and what should happen next. Our consultancy exists to answer those questions with you and recommend practical next steps.

Planning connects the topics we work in: mental health, suicide prevention, neuroinclusion, psychosocial risk, trauma-informed practice and leadership.

The work

What a typical engagement includes

  1. 01

    Discovery & needs analysis

    Understanding your context, structure, pressures, data and what's already been tried.

  2. 02

    Review of existing activity

    Policies, EAP, training history, champion networks, surveys and pathways — what is working and what needs attention.

  3. 03

    Stakeholder & employee consultation

    Listening sessions and structured conversations, so the plan reflects reality on the ground.

  4. 04

    Facilitated leadership conversations

    Getting decision-makers into the same room and out with a shared view of priorities.

  5. 05

    Gaps & priorities

    Practical recommendations in an agreed order of priority.

  6. 06

    Action planning

    Agreed actions, owners, timescales and measures that people have actually shaped.

  7. 07

    Programme design

    Designing the learning and interventions that follow, matched to audiences and phasing.

  8. 08

    Implementation support

    Helping it land: communications, champion support, manager forums, resources.

  9. 09

    Review

    Revisit, measure what we can, adapt. Then decide what's next.

Formats

How this usually works

Short engagement

Discovery & recommendations

A focused piece of work producing a written picture of strengths, gaps and prioritised recommendations.

One session

Facilitated strategy day

A single, well-designed session with leaders or a working group that produces an actual plan.

Ongoing

Programme partnership

Multi-phase work across audiences and sites, with review points built in.

Principles

How we approach it

  • Start where you are — no organisation needs to be sorted before it can begin.
  • Proportionate recommendations, matched to your size, budget and appetite.
  • Staff experience helps shape the plan.
  • We name work design and leadership issues rather than defaulting to a wellbeing initiative.
  • Change should outlast the workshop — so implementation and review are part of the scope.
  • Clear about our boundaries: we're not a legal, clinical or compliance certification service.

Next step

Tell us where you're up to

Discuss your organisation

A short note is plenty. We'll suggest whether a consultation, a discovery piece or a single session makes most sense.

Your name and email are required. Everything else is optional. Enquiries are welcome from individuals, teams, organisations and communities.

Please share any information that would help us support you, your team or organisation, including adjustments or needs. You don't need to share a diagnosis or medical history.

Your enquiry is stored in our existing Wix contact system so the IAP team can respond. Email updates are optional and existing opt-outs are preserved. Privacy & cookies.

Not ready for a strategy conversation? That's fine. Many partnerships start with one keynote or one course, and grow from there once people can see the value.

Let's talk about your organisation

Tell us what's happening and we'll be honest about what would help most — whether that's a single session or a longer programme. The first conversation is free and there's no obligation.
