Our Testimonials

“Partnering with Peter Seehusen and the Lead-Well team has delivered great support for our operations and technology teams at Bank of Sydney.

Amid a major digital transformation, Peter delivered a highly engaging and practical ‘Change Resilience’ program that empowered our people to develop the confidence and practical skills to effectively lead themselves and their teams through the change process. 

The feedback in relation to the investment in our people and engagement was highlighted by a survey response of 84% across all measures as our teams felt supported, inspired, and better equipped for the journey ahead.

Many requested for more of the same and for the sessions to be extended organisation-wide. A truly valuable investment in our people and culture for personal change leadership as we embark on a period of transformational change."

"Peter proved to be much more than just a facilitator when we approached him to support our People Manager population.

From the outset, he engaged as a true thought partner, collaborating with us to define the problem space and consider the most impactful way to deliver the content. To tailor the content to our specific organisational challenges, Peter requested key business information and integrated our company values and behaviours into the workshop. 

He delivered a tailored training programme, featuring both in-person and online sessions to 75 of our People Managers, up to the Director level. Participants praised Peter's expert knowledge, the compelling studies and stories he shared, and his engaging, open presentation style.

We hope to work with Peter again on future projects!"

“I was fortunate enough to attend a program facilitated by Peter where his calm, engaging and welcoming style created a safe environment for the delegates to openly share experiences.

Peter used his personal experiences to talk through the importance of wellbeing and the positive mindset required to overcome adversity - this was well received by those in attendance as his simple techniques allowed him to form connections. 

His story telling brought the challenges to life, allowing for personal reflection with the team. This positive interaction is still one that people in the business reference when discussing resilience.”

“I’ve had the pleasure of collaborating with Peter on projects with the South Sydney Rabbitohs and Bank of Sydney in recent times. What really stands out is his investment of energy in creating meaningful programmes tailored to each client. 

Peter combines his deep expertise with a passionate attention to detail, always ensuring alignment and fostering a psychologically safe environment for the group.”

"We were lucky enough for our entire team of 35 people leaders to experience multiple workshops facilitated by Peter. The feedback from our team was extremely positive.

Peter created a psychological safe space for conversation through a curious, calm and authentic approach and really made everything very pertinent to our workplace environment. The team were able to apply evidence-based wellbeing strategies to help both themselves and the teams they led.

Following the sessions, we noticed a positive shift towards an improved culture of wellbeing across the organisation and believe that the way the content was delivered in a relatable and relevant way created the biggest impact for our staff."

"Peter Seehusen, through Lead-Well, has been a valuable addition to our community. His calm, considered approach offers a gentle entry point for all staff to reflect on their own wellbeing and happiness, as well as that of others. 

Backed by solid research, his insights are delivered with warmth and humour, making them all the more accessible and impactful. Perhaps most importantly, Peter offers ways we can empower ourselves in this space. In a short time, he has made a wonderful difference to our team."

“Engaging, inspiring and deeply thought-provoking, Peter's coaching and support of leaders are first class. The sessions with Peter provide a safe space for us all to think freely, consider the bigger picture and gain a refreshed perspective of what it means to lead ourselves and to lead others.

Peter manages to meet what is a delicate balance of vulnerability and the academic, basing his entire approach on personal experience and boundless research. The result is that others are inclined to look inwardly, making the sessions meaningful and incredibly powerful.

Everyone will enjoy their time with Peter. He is articulate and sincere, mixing humour with challenge in a way that encourages a new way of perceiving one's own purpose - and with practical tips to tackle the unknown. This ultimately leads to a greater sense of self-understanding and inner strength.

People leave Peter's sessions renewed and encouraged to make a difference.”

“The 'Authentic Connection' training program was designed for 70 members across varying departments at the Embassy with an aim of encouraging staff to be active in their care for colleagues, and Peter was a great source of knowledge and inspiration for staff in discussing ways to connect more closely with others in the workplace. 

He shared practical guidance on strategies staff can employ to look after themselves and lead their teams more effectively, with the training receiving widespread praise from the staff for facilitating discussions on how to provide respectful and genuine support to colleagues.”

“Having partnered with Peter since early 2020, he has provided a unique insight into engaging, supporting and coaching a largely remote workforce in the Recruitment industry. Peter has become a sounding block for not just the wellbeing of the consultants and leaders in the business, but on a range of other business related topics. 

He has incredibly high emotional intelligence, listens with intent and asks brilliant questions - questions that allow you to get to the source of the topic to find a solution. He has been an invaluable asset and I would recommend partnering with Peter, you'll experience value across your organisation that you can not put a price on.”

“I’ve worked with Pete within a variety of contexts for multiple years now and have greatly appreciated his continued guidance and support. His ability to dive into the details, understand complex situations, and provide actionable recommendations has significantly contributed to creating a positive and productive team environment. 

Collaborating with Pete is an investment in your team's wellbeing, and I would highly recommend him for any team lead or people manager.”

"Peter’s facilitation skills rank amongst the finest that I have encountered over my 15 years’ experience in senior leadership roles across the private and higher education sectors, including running professional and personal development programs for one of Australia’s top universities .

His preparation and delivery are unparalleled – considered, interactive, reflective and participative. Peter engages with the content and the participants equally and seamlessly, ensuring that evidence-based content is accessible, understood and applied.

His workshops feel effortless, yet always on track – a testament to his ability to gently lead from the wings, linking participants’ comments, questions and lived experiences back to the core of the activity at hand. Cannot recommend more highly."

"Peter expertly delivered three workshops for our Head In The Game team day. His professionalism, knowledge, passion, and real commitment to the subject matter came through in everything he did. He was warm, open, and genuinely listened, and our group of trustees, volunteers, staff, and supporters all benefited from spending that time with him.

We are proud to be a partner alongside Lead-Well. Working with Peter has been a real asset for us, both personally and professionally. He has played a key part in helping us strengthen the mental fitness of our organisation, and the work we have done together has added real depth and quality to the support we provide.

We fully recommend and commend Peter and his organisation as a true beacon of mental health support."
