Mattering matters.
Welcome to the home of mattering-reinforcing leadership, culture & care
& living what matters most to you.
Mattering - knowing you are valued and add value to others - is a basic human need. When people know why, and how much, they matter, they, their relationships and their workplaces, thrive.
It all begins with a need.
Maybe you’re a conference or event organiser in need of a transformational keynote speaker, a speaker your boss and the audience will thank you for booking.
Maybe you’re a leader or HR professional in need of a way to elevate your organisation’s or team’s performance, motivate and energise staff, increase productivity or staff retention (or all of the above). You’ve tried the usual HR initiatives and training days, the impact of which is only ever short-lived. You’re in a need of a transformational, game-changing solution.
Maybe you work in the education, counselling, grief-support, aged-care or social support sector, with a need to understand how to better support those in your care. You (and your team) are exhausted, time poor, have a yearning to want to do ‘more’ to support the complex needs of those you support, yet you’re unsure what that ‘more’ looks like. You care deeply, sometimes wondering if you care a little too much.
Or, maybe you’re a successful, ‘onto it’ individual who is feeling stuck. You’re unsure what’s next for you, yet you have a growing sense that there must be ‘more’ to life, than the status quo. You want to make a real impact, to do and live what matters most to you, you just need some help to figure out what that looks like and the steps needed to get there.
If any of these describe you, let’s chat.

Mattering reinforcing-care is an approach to caring and supporting others that recognises the critical role of mattering.
People only experience behaviours intended to be caring and supportive, as such, when those behaviours reinforce a sense of mattering.
I developed this approach based on my research exploring the care and support experiences of children affected by suicide-loss. These findings have gone on to inform the development of programmes and approaches, globally, in a range of contexts.
What is mattering-reinforcing care?
What is mattering-reinforcing leadership?
Mattering reinforcing-leadership recognises the critical role of mattering within the workplace context.
Mattering is a basic human need. When people know how and why they matter, they, their relationships and their workplaces thrive. When employees know they matter - feel valued and know that they add value to others - they are more motivated, engaged and productive.
Once Leaders and HR Professionals understand the impact of mattering, on workplace engagement, productivity, and profit, the decision to adopt a mattering-reinforcing workplace culture becomes a no-brainer.
