Wellbeing Everywhere
Because thriving people create thriving organisations
Wellbeing isn’t a “nice-to-have” — it’s essential.
And no, a pool table in the break room or a Friday team lunch won’t fix burnout.
The truth? Most workplaces, universities, schools, and teams don’t have the knowledge, skills, or systems to spot and respond to early signs of mental distress. HR teams may not be equipped with all the tools they need for difficult cases. Teachers are generally not trained to do it. Managers are almost never trained to do it. And yet, mental health challenges affect everyone, everywhere.
Why this matters
1 in 4 people experience a mental health problem each year (WHO)
50% of long-term absence from work is due to stress, anxiety, or depression (EU-OSHA)
In schools, 78% of teachers report work-related stress, with burnout rates rising yearly
Untreated mental health issues cost the global economy $1 trillion annually in lost productivity (WHO)
The cost of doing nothing is too high — for individuals, for organisations, and for society.
Our belief
We believe every organisation should be a place where people can think clearly, communicate openly, and stay well, even when the work is demanding.
Practical tools, everyday habits, and grounded leadership make this possible.
How we help
Skills for spotting and supporting mental health
We train people to notice the signs — in themselves and in others — before problems escalate.
Self-awareness tools to recognise your own stress or burnout signals
Practical techniques to support colleagues, students, or team members
How to respond safely and compassionately when someone is struggling
Mental Health First Aid (MHFA) training
We can train one person, a whole team, or your entire organisation to become Mental Health First Aiders — the go-to people for spotting, listening, and guiding others towards help.
Communicating With Impact
Clear, confident communication transforms how teams work — reducing friction, building trust, and supporting wellbeing. We help leaders and teams communicate so people feel informed, aligned and valued, even in high-pressure environments.
Who we work with
At Leladijo, we partner with organisations where the stakes are high: leaders balancing competing priorities, teams under pressure, and environments that move fast.
Our work strengthens the foundations that matter most: clear communication, practical leadership, and ways of working that help people stay focused, effective, and well.
Organisations
Clear communication. Strong leadership. Teams that perform under pressure.
Whether you’re a corporate team, consulting firm, association, nonprofit, or government unit, you need your people to collaborate smoothly, make decisions quickly, and communicate with impact.
We support organisations to:
strengthen leadership communication, influencing, and storytelling
reduce friction caused by unclear expectations, misalignment, or overload
build team habits that reduce stress and boost performance
manage high-pressure cycles with more calm and clarity
From C-level communication skills to team-wide performance habits, we bring a blend of strategic insight, coaching expertise, and real-world practicality.
Universities
Where complex environments demand clear communication and confident leadership.
Universities juggle competing priorities: heavy academic workloads, student wellbeing demands, cross-faculty coordination, and constant change.
We help academic and professional teams to:
communicate more clearly across roles, faculties, and functions
handle difficult conversations with confidence
manage high-pressure periods without losing focus
support staff and students through demanding cycles
The result: clearer collaboration, stronger leadership, and teams who can sustain high-quality work over time.
Event Teams
Where pressure is real, timelines are tight, and communication makes or breaks the outcome.
Events bring together designers, planners, venues, suppliers, AV crews, volunteers, and leadership, often in high-stress, fast-changing environments.
We are one of the few consultancies specialising in communication and wellbeing specifically for the events sector.
We help event teams to:
communicate clearly in high-pressure, time-sensitive situations
prevent overwhelm during build-up, onsite delivery, and debrief phases
manage last-minute changes with more calm and coordination
develop team habits that support resilience and reduce burnout
Through our Event Mental Wellbeing framework and EMW Practitioner Training, we’ve trained teams to deliver outstanding events without sacrificing their health or performance.
