Are you ready to tackle high turnover, low morale, and burnout on your team? If so, exploring trauma-informed supervision training might be the game-changer you’ve been looking for. While some leaders hesitate to dive into this approach, addressing trauma in the workplace is not only impactful but also necessary for fostering a thriving organizational culture.
Common Concerns About Trauma-Informed Training
If you’ve been unsure about embracing trauma-informed supervision, you’re not alone. Many leaders voice similar concerns:
“It’s not my job to handle personal issues.”
“Work is for work, not personal matters.”
“We don’t have the time or budget.”
“Will this even work?”
“Things aren’t that bad.”
While these apprehensions are understandable, they often overlook the profound connection between personal challenges and workplace performance.
The Reality of Trauma in the Workplace
Here’s why trauma-informed supervision should be on your radar:
Prevalence of Trauma: Approximately two-thirds of adults in the U.S. have experienced at least one traumatic event. This could range from extreme situations to more subtle but impactful experiences like chronic stress, childhood adversity, or grief.
Trauma’s Impact: Trauma doesn’t stay at home. Employees carry these experiences with them into the workplace, often unconsciously. Without awareness, your organization could inadvertently add to their stress, fueling disengagement, turnover, and burnout.
Ripple Effect: A lack of understanding around trauma can create environments where employees feel unsupported, leading to a domino effect of decreased morale and increased attrition.
