The workplace is like a crucible. Many elements mix together; human needs, interactions, demographics, diversity and personalities. The simple priority for all organisations is a harmonious environment where productivity thrives. Staff learning and development is key to achieving cohesion and results.
Supporting employees’ development in offices, WFH, construction sites and elsewhere across corporate and public sectors, Acting Out Productions brings training alive through drama-based, interactive workshops. The power of drama impacts immediately and long-term.
‘Dave’s Story’:
One of the projects we created and delivered for Sir Robert McAlpine focused on mental health in the workplace. With cases of suicide at an alarming high in the construction industry, Sir Robert McAlpine wanted a different and memorable mental awareness training programme. ‘Dave’s Story’, including the trailer here, was rolled out in workshops in offices and sites across the UK. People gained a visual and practical insight into what to look for and how to communicate with someone experiencing mental distress.
