Frontline teams are being asked to handle more conversations about debt, bereavement, mental health, serious illness and vulnerability. Even skilled colleagues can feel the emotional weight of that work.

This course helps delegates recognise when their resilience is dropping and what they can do before pressure builds. It covers boundaries, support networks, self-care and practical strategies for staying steady during and after high-stress customer interactions.

For organisations, well-being is also a quality and risk issue. Staff who feel supported are better placed to listen, respond with care and provide consistent service throughout the day.

Who is this course for?

  • Customer-facing team members
  • Claims handlers
  • Complaints handlers
  • Collections, arrears and payment support teams
  • Vulnerability Champions and vulnerability leads
  • Customer service team leaders and managers
  • HR, L&D, well-being and operations teams
