“The role of directors is explored in depth, not just from a legal and regulatory perspective but from a moral viewpoint. I feel better equipped to ask probing questions in my governance roles. Samantha has created a deeply insightful course that will challenge any director to truly step into their role and positively influence both organisational culture and real outcomes.”
Hi, I’m Samantha McGolrick and I assist company directors in making a positive impact on the health, happiness and resilience of society through good governance.
By showing you where you have the most influence on employee wellbeing, health and safety outcomes and how to leverage that influence, Lead with Heart in the Boardroom will help you ask better questions, be more intentional, comply with your obligations & lead by example in your boardroom.
Although I have some experience with health & safety and well-being, this course guided me to think more deeply about the interaction between culture, systems and safety. The program provides a solid foundation of understanding around health & safety and the impact of wellbeing on organisational success. The role of directors is explored in depth, not just from a legal and regulatory perspective but from a moral viewpoint. I feel better equipped to ask probing questions in my governance roles.

If you want to influence positive employee outcomes, or at least know that you're not inadvertently contributing to adverse outcomes, then you need to know where to focus your governance efforts.
Right now, you might be thinking:
It is often difficult to see the indirect influence that your board is having on employee outcomes when you're so many steps removed.
However, boards drive organisational climate, climate drives culture over time, and culture drives performance ... so your board plays an imperative role in how well your organisation performs and how employees feel.
Lead with Heart in the Boardroom is the right program for you if
YOU WANT YOUR BOARD ROLE TO MATTER
... and if you're ready to:
Engage in more deliberate wellbeing, health and safety conversations with your board peers that lead to positive outcomes for your employees and other stakeholders.
Increase trust with your executive so that communication between your board and executive is more transparent.
Fulfil your governance responsibilities and legislative obligations because you’re confident in what good governance of health, safety and wellbeing looks like.
Avoid personal reputational damage … you didn’t realise the culture your board was condoning by what it ignored.
Challenge yourself to see things differently and avoid a narrow frame of view.
Guest Speaker:
By the end of this
program you will have:
But above all else...
Lead with Heart in the Boardroom will bring a more human-centred approach to your governance and transform the way you see your influence on outcomes so that you can govern with purpose and
create a meaningful board legacy.
“I found Lead with Heart in the Boardroom in response to our board’s increasing interest in wellbeing post COVID and I’ve received a lot of positive feedback. I personally feel that the relationship between myself and the board is more constructive with the knowledge our board has gained. I would definitely recommend incorporating Lead with Heart in the Boardroom into a board induction.”
“Samantha is a great communicator and I appreciate her insights around the board’s influence on health, safety and well-being outcomes. I found it particularly interesting to understand how our board could be inadvertently driving behaviour that was not conducive to our executive team’s mental health”.

Here’s What Your Fellow Boardroom
Peers Have Asked Before Clicking Enrol.
Each lesson in the program is between 15 – 30min and there are 4 – 6 lessons in each Habit, so all up, the training is approximately one day as an investment in your governance for years to come!
You have lifetime access so you’re free to go through the program at your own pace.
Quite simply, yes!
I’m my experience, board experience doesn’t equate to being effective at governing wellbeing, health and safety even if you’re in a “high risk” industry. There are so many assumptions we apply to health and safety, but there is little to no training for boards in the governance of these social aspects of the business.
As a result, I see far too many boards applying out of date theories to their inquiry and this makes it harder for those at every level in the organisation, in particular your executive, to make the necessary changes that will drive positive wellbeing, health and safety outcomes.
Not at all. Knowing how to lead and govern health, safety and wellbeing is an essential skill for any board member. It’s even more important in jurisdictions where you have personal liability (i.e. Australia and New Zealand).
If you wouldn’t delegate your responsibility for reviewing and interpreting the financial reports, why would you for the wellbeing, health and safety of those in the organisation? Don’t be caught out thinking that others know what they’re talking about just because you’re not entirely clear yourself. I’m here to help you be more confident and deliberate in your actions.
As soon as you enrol, you’ll get access to all 6 modules and supporting lessons. You’ll also get access to The Effective Habits of Purpose-Driven Board Members Framework which will give you an overview of all the lessons in each Habit, and any relevant exercises and Deep Dive session topics.
You can then go through the program at your own pace.
The content is delivered online so you’ll get a username and password to login. You’ll use those login details to access your account at any point in the future, especially when I make updates to the program and these updates will always be free for you.
You will also have available a free app so you can watch the training videos wherever you are (i.e. on a plane commuting to your next board meeting). You can even download the videos to your smart device or laptop so you don’t need wifi to watch them back.
I’ve made it as easy as possible for you to access the content at your convenience.
You certainly can!
You’ll receive a certificate of completion that acknowledges the hours involved in the program in terms of the videos and exercises and an overview of the content. You can provide this certificate to your membership association as evidence of your continuing professional development (CPD).
Lead with Heart in the Boardroom is nothing like your average health and safety governance training.
Most board training in health and safety is around compliance, and while Lead with Heart in the Boardroom will help you comply with your legislative obligations I built the program to show you what better practice wellbeing, health and safety governance looks like.
What makes this program truly unique is that I’ll show you where you currently have influence and how to effectively apply that influence to cultivating positive outcomes. Lead with Heart in the Boardroom isn’t just a training program, this is about leaving a board legacy that you can be proud of.
No. Just bring an open mind and the enthusiasm in knowing that you’re about to contribute to something much bigger than yourself.

If I update a checklist or a guide or find new information that supports what you’ve learned in the program, or a new governance approach, and I make an update to the program, you have instant access to that new and fresh content!
Consider Lead with Heart in the Boardroom as somewhat of a membership program (with no recurring fees!).
You have 28 days to test drive the training and it begins the day you get access. If you’re not satisfied that you’re thinking differently about your influence on culture, or how to influence systemic change, or how to make a improve wellbeing, health and safety outcomes, just send through your completed work to [email protected] – and I’ll refund your investment.

There's never been a better time in modern history to be more deliberate in improving employee wellbeing.
We all want our employees to be healthy, happy and resilient – especially in the current state of the world today where we’re seeing stress, burnout, suicide and mental illness, loneliness, low engagement, lack of meaning and purpose, bullying and sexual harassment as some of the critical issues of our time.
Not to mention the unequivocal link between personal wellbeing and performance, human and organisational.
If you’re feeling a tad overwhelmed by this or worried about how your board measures up when it comes to its Social Governance, you’re not alone, but more importantly I am hear for you.
I created Lead with Heart in the Boardroom so that you can use the precious time that you have in your board meetings and site visits to make a positive impact, better support your board peers and executive and build a legacy that you can be proud of.
I don’t want you to look back on your board role or career and think, did I make a difference? Did I recognise my influence and use it for good?
I want you to look back and have absolute confidence that your governance and your behaviour improved the lives of those who work in your organisation. And I want you to thank yourself for the decision you made today.
All my best,
