A bespoke programme for HR leadership
Trauma-Informed HRM Approaches
Trauma-informed practice is well established in health, justice, and social work. In HR, where it arguably matters most, it remains genuinely underdeveloped. This is a bespoke programme to embed trauma-informed practice across your whole HR function, as the operating philosophy, not a one-off intervention. Designed around your organisation, for the CPOs, CHROs, and HR Directors ready to lead that change.

Partnership, not a slide deck.
We design a trauma-informed HRM programme around your organisation. We give your leadership, management, and HR functions the confidence and capability to design, implement, and consult on a trauma-informed organisational framework of their own. The goal is lasting internal capability, not dependency on us.
Grounded in recognised frameworks
The frameworks we build on.
Our work is not invented. It is built on two established, evidence-based national frameworks, translated into concrete HR practice.
The Six Principles of Trauma-Informed Practice, the English OHID framework. We translate each principle, Safety, Trust, Choice, Collaboration, Empowerment, and Cultural Consideration, into concrete HR practice.
The 5 R’s, the Scottish NES model. This is the model we use for embedding trauma-informed change across a whole organisation: Realise, Recognise, Respond, Resist re-traumatisation, and Relationships.
What we can help you with
An inviting menu, not a fixed scope.
These are examples of where we typically start. Every programme is designed around your organisation’s needs and maturity, and this list is not exhaustive.
The whole employee experience
Embedding trauma-informed principles across the whole employee experience, as standard.
Policy design and language
Trauma-informed policy design, and the language used within policies.
Recruitment and onboarding
Trauma-informed recruitment, onboarding and induction.
Performance and capability
Trauma-informed performance, absence and capability processes.
Change, restructure and redundancy
The human side of hard change, handled with rigour and care.
Investigations and casework
Trauma-informed investigations, disclosures and casework, linking to our specialist courses.
Supporting the HR team itself
Vicarious trauma, reflective supervision and sustainability, linking to our supervision service.
Building internal capability
The confidence and skill to lead this change and consult on it independently, long after we step back.
Who it’s for
Senior leaders ready to lead a strategic commitment.
CPOs, CHROs, HR Directors, People and Culture leaders, and the HR and leadership teams around them, ready to embed trauma-informed practice as a whole-function commitment rather than a single initiative.
Format
Bespoke, by design.
This can be function-wide, a longer programme, a series of sessions, or a single strategic session with your leadership team, depending on your organisation’s needs, maturity, and ambition. Delivered face-to-face on-site, live virtually, or as a blend of both. Always designed around your organisation, never delivered off the shelf.
On-site, live virtual, or a blend, shaped around you.
