Leadership Training
for Healthier Workplaces
Our evidence-based training programs empower leaders to support the safety, health and well-being of workers.

Our programs offer a computer-based training module followed by behavioral reinforcement in downloadable tools, templates, and other resources.
Many of these programs stem from the original work by Dr. Leslie Hammer and Dr. Ellen Kossek on Family Supportive Supervisor Behaviors.
