Online workshop: Strengths Crafting - Bringing strengths to life in everyday work

Event Overview

Research shows that both strengths utilisation and job crafting can enhance motivation, resilience, and productivity. Yet organisations rarely combine the two. This workshop changes that.

Perfect for coaches and people development professionals, this brand-new workshop will give you practical tools to boost the wellbeing, engagement, and performance of the people you support.

Strengths Crafting is a pioneering approach that brings together two powerful, evidence-based methods: strengths-based practice and the science of job crafting. This one-day workshop will explore how to embed strengths into everyday actions at an individual, team, and organisational level.

Whether you work in an internal role, or as a consultant, Strengths Crafting can be a valuable technique if your aim is to help people thrive at work. 

Why Attend?

By the end of the session, you will:

• Know how to apply strengths crafting in practice

• Understand how strengths crafting builds confidence, competence, and collaboration in your teams

• Leave with practical tools you can use immediately.

Through a mixture of interactive activities, evidence-based tools, and real-world examples, you’ll discover how aligning strengths with work can transform people’s performance and wellbeing.

You will also be the first to explore newly developed practical activities that combine both Strengths Cards and Crafting Cards, giving you fresh ways to apply these approaches in your everyday work.

Who Should Attend?

This event is designed for HR leaders, OD and L&D professionals, coaches, and organisational leaders who want to:

• Embed wellbeing, motivation, and performance through work design

• Develop highly engaged teams

• Move beyond theory and into practical, evidence-based action.

You don’t need any prior experience with strengths or job crafting to attend - this workshop will give you everything you need to get started. Even if you’re familiar with these topics, you’ll get fresh inspiration and insights from this session.

Your Facilitators

This is a rare opportunity to learn from world leading experts in strengths and job crafting, with facilitators coming from both the Work Positive and Tailored Thinking teams:

• Michele Deeks / Martin Galpin – Co-founders of Work Positive, business psychologists and co-creators of the Strengths Cards.

• Rob Baker / Charlotte Axon – Business Psychologists at Tailored Thinking, specialists in bringing job crafting to life, and creators of the Crafting Cards

Your facilitators will share the latest research, case studies, and hands-on techniques that you can apply immediately.

What’s Included?

All attendees will be sent a deck of Crafting Cards and Strengths Cards, which will underpin our day. We will try our absolute best to have both of these in your hands before the workshop but, if they don't make it, we will have a technological version so you can still get fully engaged with the activities.
