Are you a GP, hospital doctor or manager in health or social care?

 

Doing a demanding day job and also leading a team?

 

...then you're in the right place.

 

We know things are tough right now.


Overwhelming demand and workload is causing unprecedented levels of stress and burnout. Staff are going off sick, retiring early or just leaving - creating even more work for those who remain.

In the past, healthcare professionals have absorbed the work by working longer and harder, often sacrificing their own home life and wellbeing. But now, we're reaching capacity. There's no more flex in the system.
 

If nothing changes, the system will fail.

Today's new ways of working have made teams more fragmented than ever. Leaders are feeling increased isolation, stress and fatigue, combined with the overwhelming workload.

You may feel worried about your team's ability to cope, feel responsible and exhausted trying to 'fix it' for everyone. You may be concerned that you are not doing enough to support them - but you don't have the time or resources needed to do a great job. 

The Resilient Team Academy helps leaders retain their staff and reclaim their wellbeing - with tools to help teams beat stress, take control of their workload, and transform the way they communicate.

What difference does the Resilient Team Academy make?

It’s given me more confidence to try things that I wouldn’t have tried before. My team feel I’m more approachable and I reflect on things more before coming up with solutions rather than panicking and trying to rescue everyone

FAQ

Trusted by leading healthcare organisations

“I really, genuinely recommend the Shapes Toolkit. It’s had a real impact on teams and individuals, it’s accessible, applicable and transferrable across teams.” 

Teri Putnam, Head of Delivery

The Shapes Toolkit™ - transforming healthcare leadership and their teams

The Shapes Toolkit is the one of the key things missing from most leadership training.

The Shapes are memorable, easy to use and can give the team a shared framework and language to use when talking through issues of resilience and productivity.

The Shapes Toolkit™ consists of:

The Zone of Power

Recognising the things you have control over.

This empowers teams to take more responsibility over the things that they can control and enables them to be more proactive.

The Stressors Hexagon

The 6 causes of workplace stress.

Enables people to identify the potential causes of stress in their workplace and make the necessary changes.

The Vortex of Busyness

The 8 ‘Ways to wellbeing’ 

Enables teams to have conversations to increase their wellbeing and recognise when colleagues are heading towards burnout.

The Coaching Pentagon

A simple coaching model for better conversations.

Enables managers to have empowering conversations in which team members are able to solve their own problems.

In the Corner

How we react badly when stressful things happen.

Helps team members recognise the thinking which triggers their stress, and then change their response to stressful events.

The Prioritisation Grid

A time and workload management matrix.

Helps people to prioritise their workload and to set aside time to deal with the important things first.

The Drama Triangle

Identifying when you are stuck in a victim, a persecutor or a rescuer role.

This helps people to identify when they are taking an unhelpful role, and helps them move away from a victim, rescuer or persecutor mentality, and empower others to do so too.

The Shapes Toolkit is a done-for-you set of tools based on neuroscience and a coaching approach, and forms the core content for the Resilient Team Academy.

These 7 shapes provide the mindset and tools to help you and your colleagues to thrive. 

You can start using these today to help have better conversations with your team, take a coaching approach and implement this framework directly into your organisation, right where you are.

About us

The Resilient Team Academy is hosted by Dr Rachel Morris and Annie Hanekom who have extensive experience of working in the NHS and other high stress organisations with teams under pressure.


The Resilient Team Academy was created by Dr Rachel Morris

Rachel knows what it's like to work in the NHS and feel exhausted and overwhelmed.

Through training as a coach, she discovered some productivity, coaching and resilience tools which made a huge difference to how she lived and worked. She has seen first hand the difference that these tools have made to leaders and their teams and put them together to create the Shapes toolkit. She now works with doctors and other leaders, sharing the Shapes Tools and helping professionals in high stress jobs beat burnout and work happier. 

Rachel is a speaker, trainer and executive and team coach. She created the Shapes Toolkit, a series of coaching and productivity tools to enhance team resilience which she delivers around the UK to doctors and other professionals in high-stress jobs. 

She worked as a GP in the NHS for over 20 years and set up and led the Professionalism Course for Cambridge University School of Clinical Medicine teaching leadership, team working and resilience. She’s currently a tutor for the PGCert in Medical Education at the Cambridge University Institute for Continuing Education.

Rachel is also the host of the podcast You Are Not a Frog which ranks in the Top 100 UK Apple Business Podcast Chart.


Annie Hanekom is a co-host and teacher in the Academy

Annie is an executive coach, facilitator and leadership practitioner. She has spent more than 16 years in the consulting and leadership development arena both in the UK and in South Africa, currently based in Cambridge in the UK, serving global clients in both locations. She has coached and advised on leadership, team and personal effectiveness and focuses on building deep self awareness in individuals.

Annie combines experience in consulting with her strong interpersonal skills and draws on her endurance athletics passion and experience to focus on building leaders' potential, providing thinking partnership and working with individuals and teams to evolve their awareness of themselves. She does this through advising on people strategy, leadership programme development, facilitation and executive and team coaching.
