Our Services
We harness the efficacy of Mindfulness, Positive Psychology and Neuroscience as the scientific and theoretical underpinning to offer practical and accessible experiential training and coaching interventions that are focused on building psychological capital at work.
Leadership Development
In today’s VUCA world of Volatility, Uncertainty, Complexity and Ambiguity any theory of leadership development needs to be grounded in adult development theory. This highlights the need for leaders to embody psychological and emotional maturity to facilitate an integrated approach when engaged as a leader. At PSYCAP We tend to think that most leadership development programs do not focus enough attention to the “internal states” from which people lead – this is the focus of our work.
Outsourced Talent Management, Performance Management and Employee Assistance Programmes (EAP)
Our clients often struggle to implement talent management and performance management strategies, this is sometimes due to the absence of an HR department or the potentially difficult personal/professional nature of employer/employee relationships. We take-over this function as an outsourced business partner to provide HR expertise and support to the business.
Mindfulness and Strengths-Based Coaching Interventions:
Training and coaching Interventions that are focussed on highlighting and utilising Mindfulness-based interventions (MBSR & MBCT) and Character Strengths as a gateway for optimal functioning and well-being in the workplace.
Positive Intelligence Training:
Your potential at work is determined by many factors, including your cognitive intelligence (IQ), your emotional intelligence (EQ), and your skills, knowledge, experience, and social networks. However, it is your positive intelligence (PQ) that determines what percentage of your potential that you can actualize. Your positive intelligence is a measure of your ability to work actively and constructively with your mind and your intentionality.
Mindfulness Bootcamp for the Financial Markets

HERO Training (PsyCap Training)
Training in the “Big 4” of Psychological Capital (PsyCap)
Hope: is a cognitive process which motivates you to find willpower (goal-directed determination) and waypower (planning of ways to meet goals) which leads to positive emotions (the expectation of meeting desired goals)
Efficacy: (self-efficacy) is an individual’s belief in their ability to achieve goals. This is defined as a personal judgment of how well one can execute courses of action required to deal with prospective situations. Expectations of self-efficacy determines whether an individual will be able to exhibit coping behavior and how long effort will be sustained in the face of obstacles.
Resilience: When faced with adversity in life, how does a person cope or adapt? Why do some people seem to bounce back from difficult events or loss much quicker than others? Why do some people seem to get “stuck” in a point in their life, without the ability to move forward? Resilience is a learned skill which is developed as you engage in your life-world.
Optimism: can be defined as making a positive attribution about succeeding now and in the future. People with a low external locus of control tend to internalize positive events. They believe that for something good to occur, they need to mobilise their internal resources to make it happen. This is a learned behavioural construct underpinned by the research in learned helplessness and learned optimism.
Psychometric and Sociometric Assessments
“Know Thyself” written as the Delphic Oracle thousands of years ago is probably one of the most profound statements of wisdom pertaining to human development. To get to know and guide you, we use pre and post measurement and assessment to gauge latent potentials, development and transformational opportunities and outcomes. These include standardized instruments as well as Enneagram technologies and Graphological profiling.
