Speak Up

It is essential for firms to have a strong speak up culture to ensure that staff raise concerns if they've witnessed misconduct. This is vital to the success of a business.

Addressing the risks and barriers to speaking up is an important part of nurturing this culture. 

Our Speak Up training course outlines the benefits of creating a speak up culture, why psychological safety matters, how to reduce the risk of harm and drive forward lasting cultural change.
