---

Aspire has partnered with ShareTree Health to  launch their tools and programs that improve character, mental wellbeing and more. Engage Cultures – Improving clarity, well-being, and performance in Organizational Cultures by facilitating authentic connections between people based on the character strengths that they see in each other every day.

Most mental health issues are preventable in most cases from occurring at all or at the least reduced in its impact through Promotion, Prevention and Early Intervention (PPEI). The key elements to an effective strategy for prevention are the following:

1. Building holistic awareness for the individual, the leadership and the organization
2. Identifying issues at early stage and seeing the trends of individuals and teams
3. Building a trusted support network to address challenges before they become issues
4. Check-in more regularly and providing invited support to those under strain in the time of need
5. Creating a psychologically safe culture where it is ok to be vulnerable and invite support.

Emotional Pulse was developed to alleviate the challenge people experience around mental health by connecting people and giving them the ability to check-in and support each other during times of strain. The technology is built in alignment with effective mental health frameworks of promotion, prevention and early intervention support. Support is most effective when is it timely, invited, trusted and skilled.  

Emotional Pulse fosters this type of support in a practical, confidential and human way, where technology enhances human empathic connections. We are reducing the stigma related to mental health, increasing emotional awareness and effective support that prevents chronic mental health issues.

The Mental Health First Responders (MHFR) program is a globally recognized certified program that has been developed using psychology and mental health principles, and is endorsed by the Mental Health Foundation Australia. Promotion, Prevention, and Early Intervention Support reduces the impact on a person in mental health distress, and minimizes the time and cost to recover back to a state of stability. Mental health distress, left undetected and unsupported, can lead to chronic mental health issues and increase the chance of risk and time for recovery.

The ShareTree Mental Health & Wellbeing Program is designed to empower organizations with the skills and resources they need to create effective, measured and sustainable change within teams. Research shows that cultures that establish authentic trust and skilled support not only reduce mental health losses, but also increase overall culture engagement and performance outcomes. 

The program follows best practice continuous improvement change management approach that includes a proven blend of education, authentic people engagement and empowers sustainable habits and routines for connection, support and transparency. ShareTree Empower your teams with all the resources you need to create and sustain change.

Team Culture Engagement Survey - uncovers the  teams needs and how the organization is meeting  them. It provides a valuable point of time insight through visualizing the ‘7 Layers of Team Culture and Engagement’ cross referenced against ‘The 5 Lever of Influence’. This survey covers all aspects of culture and is built using organizational and human developmental psychology that references 12 different scientifically validated approaches and consolidates them into a single point of reference that covers mental health and wellbeing as a holistic culture insight. 

The Charametrics assessment tool is used to assess the character strengths of people. This can be used to gain an understanding of how their unique character strengths contribute to a team culture or job role based on a set of aspirational/target values, virtues, or character qualities.
