Active Bystander
​"It is not enough to be compassionate. You must act." - Dalai Lama
Following our training:
​
-
98% of the participants agreed that the training built on their understanding of the Responsible Bystander role.​
-
96% of the participants agreed that they felt more capable in their role as a Responsible Bystander following the training.​
-
100% of participants found value in the training.
88% of people who have not personally witnessed or experienced workplace misconduct, believe they would report it and as employees we trust this in our staff. However, when met with the reality of being a bystander the statistics demonstrate different behaviour from what we believe we would do; 83% of employees say that they have witnessed workplace bullying, however, 60% of bystanders report they did nothing to intervene.

Following the training sessions, a feedback and evaluation report is compiled to ensure the actions highlighted are embedded and the learning is sustained. The report is reflective of the lived experience and perspective of the participants and includes:
Issues, actions and concerns arising
Reoccurring themes
Consultative results and areas to be addressed
Voting results
Recommendations and actions
Participant feedback
Our reports are anonymous and compiled around individual, team, manager and organisation actions
Studies have proven active bystander training reduces harassment in the workplace and is effective in increasing self-reported bystander confidence, intent to help, and perception of peer-helping behaviour.
