Research Opportunity - Can you help?

Title of study: Does Frequent Engagement with Student Wellbeing Issues Affect Staff Wellbeing, Stress, and Burnout in Higher Education?
Protocol Number: 1472 2025 Oct HSET
Approving Committee: The University of Hertfordshire Health, Science, Engineering and Technology Ethics Committee with Delegated Authority

This project aims to explore mental wellbeing, stress, and burnout levels of staff working in UK higher education, and the relationship with different levels of engagement with student wellbeing issues as part of their role.
Sarah is inviting individuals aged 18 and over, who currently work in Higher Education in the UK to participate in a brief online survey which takes 5-10 minutes to complete. Your responses will be treated solely for academic research purposes and with strict confidentiality.

Courage vs Comfort”

Most difficult conversations happen in the space between courage and comfort.

They are rarely easy, but they are almost always necessary.

Stepping into that space with curiosity rather than certainty can transform conflict into understanding.

Where do you notice your balance between courage and comfort?

🔹 From Purpose to Post: The Conversation Compass in Full 🔹
Over the past 9 days, I’ve shared the 8 points of the Conversation Compass 🧭 — a tool to help people prepare, adapt, and sustain workplace conversations that matter.
Here’s a quick recap:
1️⃣ Purpose – Clarity lowers threat
2️⃣ People – Risk is not equal
3️⃣ Pressures – Design for reality
4️⃣ Pattern – Reset expectations
5️⃣ Presence – Regulate before entering
6️⃣ Protection – Boundaries keep it constructive
7️⃣ Practice – Norms guide dialogue
8️⃣ Post – Follow-up builds trust
Together, these aren’t a script. They’re a map — flexible, practical, and grounded in the realities of workplace life.
✨ Key takeaway: Difficult conversations are never “one-and-done.” They’re processes that unfold over time. With the right conditions, they become not just survivable, but spaces where honesty, learning, and trust can grow.
Thank you for following along this series. My hope is that the Compass gives you not just strategies, but a sense of orientation the next time you step into a difficult conversation.

🔹 Post 🔹
Follow-up builds trust.
Conversations don’t end when the words do. Trust grows (or erodes) in the aftermath.
Ask yourself:
What needs to happen after this?
How will I check back in?
A quick follow-up — a written reflection, a check-in a week later — signals that the conversation mattered. When people feel seen after the moment, they’re more willing to keep showing up in the future.
Follow-up is where learning embeds and trust deepens.

🔹 Practice 🔹
Norms guide dialogue.
The quality of a conversation isn’t only about content — it’s about how we engage. Shared norms make dialogue constructive instead of destructive.
Ask yourself:
What ground rules will help us listen and respond well?
Simple norms — like “one person at a time,” or “impact before intent” — can reduce defensiveness and shift the quality of engagement. Practice is less about perfection and more about shared agreements that make honesty sustainable.

🔹Protection 🔹
Boundaries keep it constructive.
Without boundaries, difficult conversations can spiral. With them, we create safety and protect trust.
Ask yourself:
What limits or guardrails do we need?
How will we manage if this escalates?
That might mean agreeing on a clear stop time, taking time-outs, or inviting a neutral facilitator. Boundaries don’t shut dialogue down — they hold it in a container where honesty can actually thrive.
