The Mental Health Support Training for Military Leaders is an evidence-based program developed from the Readiness Supportive Leadership Training (RESULT) study and evaluated with an active duty U.S. Army population. 

 

The training has now been translated and is applicable for all branches of the military to enhance resilience in the face of stressful and hazardous workplace situations in a myriad of contexts.

"Leadership is solving problems. The day soldiers stop bringing you their problems is the day you have stopped leading them."
-Colin Powell

    The next step is the online supervisor training, an essential aspect of the program. ACCESS ONLINE TRAINING (60 min)
  • 3. Supervisor Behavior Tracking
    Once the online supervisor training is completed, the supervisor behavior tracking is designed to help reinforce learned behaviors. Behavior tracking takes a few minutes a day and lasts for two weeks. Not only does this reinforce what is learned in the online training, it also helps track supportive supervisor patterns towards employees. The Behavior Tracking Guide provides instructions and examples for tracking behaviors. Tracking can be done using the format found in the tracking guide. Alternatively, notecards, logs, journaling, or a behavior training phone app can be used for tracking. It is up to you and your organization to choose the method that works best for you.

  • 4. Follow Up
