Event Details
Wednesday, 18th of June 2025 at 9am
Join us for Leading with Impact: The ROI of Wellbeing and Neuroscience-Driven Leadership, a live event for senior leaders, HR professionals and change-makers who are committed to embedding wellbeing into the core of organisational life.
Our keynote speaker, Wolfgang Seidl, will open the session with a focused look at the strategic and financial case for wellbeing. He will address the questions every boardroom wants answered: What is the return on investment? Why does this matter now?
He will be followed by Alison Leverett-Morris, who brings a grounded and practical perspective. Her focus will be on the role of middle managers who are working to influence upwards to senior leadership and downwards to their teams. She will explore what it really takes to turn wellbeing from an idea into action.
Together, these two perspectives offer a clear and compelling view of what it takes to make wellbeing stick, from strategy through to daily practice.
Whether you are building a business case or trying to deliver real cultural change, this event will help you move forward with confidence and clarity.

Alison Leverett-Morris is a leadership coach, consultant, and facilitator with 25 years of experience at the intersection of leadership, business, and psychology.
She holds a Master’s in Leadership and served as CEO of an Arts & Mental Health charity for seven years, before qualifying as a UKCP-registered Hypno-Psychotherapist and Certified Neuroscience Coach. Alison spent a decade in clinical practice, specialising in trauma and the high-achieving personality type, and confidentially supported hundreds of professionals through burnout, identity-level change and transformational growth.
She later returned to the business world, bringing a depth of human insight and lived experience to leadership and culture – for both individual and systemic change.
Her methodology, Leadership Powered by Neuroscience & Psychology, was developed through a five-year collaboration with a founder-led business. This unique integration of psychotherapeutic insight and leadership strategy was awarded “Most Innovative” at the 2023 National Facilitator Awards (UK).
Alison is known for her refreshingly relatable approach to solving common business challenges such as performance, talent retention, and sustainable growth. In short, she supports people at all levels of a business to love their work and do it brilliantly.
