THE QUIET COST OF DOING NOTHING
The resignation you did not see coming.
The good people leaving around the one-to-three-year mark. The manager holding it together, carrying more stress than anyone on the team. Trying to fix the people has not worked, because the people were never the problem. The pressure around them was.
22.1 m
working days lost last year to stress, depression or anxiety, now 62% of all work-related ill health.

70%
of how engaged a team is comes down to its manager. The biggest lever you have.

Get the manager right and you pull the single biggest lever there is. That is exactly what this course does.
One Simple System
Yours first, then your team's.
SHEDS stands for the five everyday basics that decide how well any of us cope under pressure. You learn to protect them in yourself first, then to lead the conversations that protect them in the people you manage. Self-paced, so it works around a busy job instead of adding to it.

HOW THE COURSE WORKS
Six honest steps, at your own pace.
1
Score Your SHEDS Radar
An honest baseline across all five pillars. You cannot improve what you will not first look at plainly.
2
Where am I now?
See your starting point clearly, with no judgement. One strength to build on, one area to work on.
3
What's filling the container?
Find the pressures that are really draining you, and the ones you can quietly clear.
4
Challenging the chatter
Quiet the thinking that keeps the stress alarm ringing, with tools you can use in the moment.
5
Building the habit
Leave with a personal action plan built to survive a real week, not just a good intention.
6
Re-score your Radar
Measure the movement in black and white, so progress is visible, not just felt.
WHO IT'S FOR?
For the people who hold everything together.
Anyone who leads or manages people and does not have a day to take out of the diary. Owners, directors, team leads. If your people matter and your time is tight, this was built for you.

WHY DELAMILL
Built from the hardest possible lesson
Delamill was built after I lost a close friend to suicide in 2018. This is the work I care most about.
I am a qualified Health and Wellbeing Coach, an MHFA England instructor, and the creator of the SHEDS framework. I have trained over 1,000 people, with an average rating of 9.38 out of 10.
And looking after your people is not soft. Deloitte put the return at around £4.70 for every £1 invested. This course is how I hand that capability to you, so you can be the leader your people stay for.
