Government & Defence Workplace Training
Behaviour-led workplace training designed for complex, high-accountability government and defence environments.
​
Government and defence workplaces operate under unique pressures. Decision-making is often scrutinised, hierarchies are clear, and teams may include a mix of civilian, uniformed and operational roles. In these environments, behaviour, judgement and communication matter deeply.
​
Our Government & Defence Workplace Training is designed to reflect these realities, supporting people to navigate challenge, responsibility and impact with confidence and clarity.
Understanding the realities of government and defence environments
Working in government and defence settings brings particular behavioural challenges, including:
Balancing authority, hierarchy and accountability
Handling difficult or sensitive conversations appropriately
Navigating pressure, scrutiny and public trust
Maintaining respect, boundaries and consistency under strain
Working across civilian, uniformed and specialist roles
Culture is shaped not just by policy, but by everyday interactions. How people communicate, challenge, support and make decisions has a direct impact on trust, effectiveness and morale.
​
Our approach to government and defence workplace training
​
Our work in government and defence settings is facilitative, experiential and grounded in real situations.
Rather than relying on abstract models, we create space for people to:
Explore realistic scenarios mirroring their working environment
Reflect on behaviour, impact and judgement
Consider how actions are experienced by others
Practise constructive responses to complex situations
This approach supports honest reflection while maintaining psychological safety and respect for role, experience and responsibility.
