When people are themselves at work, their performance can be positively impacted by up to 85%. Understanding Uniqueness ignites the freedom to be you. Unique & Loved inspires attendees to recognise and value who they are and to recognise the same in others.
This knowledge can be game-changing. Attendees confirm that Unique & Loved helped them to have confidence to be themselves and to understand how they can support others to do the same. That’s powerful. Unique & Loved’s interactive and candid workshops and keynotes examine uniqueness and difference. They explore how language, thoughts and actions can facilitate inclusion or isolation, and how by appreciating uniqueness and understanding growth mindsets we can begin to reach our potential and can support others to reach theirs. Each session provides attendees with simple actionable tasks to be taken into their everyday to champion their own, and others, uniqueness. Our workshops and keynotes positively impact wellbeing and mental health, they encourage attendees to feel connected with one another and to a larger community and to feel valued by themselves, the organisation they are a part of and their peers.
