We’re Caldeira, Nice To Meet You

“Amanda from Caldeira consulting ran a really powerful workshop for the JM Cambridge site as part of our focus during Mental Health Awareness Week. The session was really informative and interactive and most importantly really helped all those who attended start to consider countering stress in the workplace in a more collective and proactive manner. The root cause analysis techniques were very familiar as a science-based manufacturing organisation but the idea of applying these techniques to a collective review of workplace stressors rather than just treating the cause or even worse the symptoms of an individual.
Amanda spoke with knowledge and experience on the subject and really engaged the audience throughout the session.” – Johnson Matthey

“It’s quite likely that companies are aware of when their workforce is experiencing stress, but it might be less likely that they know and fully understand the causes of that stress.
The most impactful part of our work with Amanda was the depth to which we looked at the root causes of our stressors—not just the stress itself. Doing so enabled us to adopt a proactive approach, and implementing preventative processes allowed us to alleviate the overall stress levels within our team. It
wasn’t just suggesting that our employees take some deep breaths or get up and away from their laptops
when things feel overwhelming; it was understanding where that overwhelm stems from and figuring out
ways we could stop it in its tracks.
Amanda’s kind and attentive nature was the perfect guidance to inspire an open and honest conversation
about what changes we could make within our company to better support our employees.” – The Good
Marketer

“My name is Lucia De Angelo, and whilst working at The Good Marketer, I had the opportunity to take part in the Wellbeing At Work programme by Caldeira Consulting.
Agency work is renowned for its fast-paced and often stressful nature. Our senior management recognised the need for practical measures to alleviate the strain on our team, particularly as we approached the demanding Q4 period. Consequently, they enrolled us in sessions led by Amanda.
As we approached the programme, we were soon approaching Q4. For those of us in marketing, the months of October, November, and December are especially demanding due to events like Black Friday and the winter holidays. This typically means an influx of new clients, last-minute projects, and many competing priorities.
Because these events are inevitable, we always felt like stress was inevitable, too, so we hired Amanda in the hopes she could help us find ways to manage it, but she did much more. Through her guidance, we came to realise that whilst we couldn’t change the number of clients, we could better organise our time.
Adopting a proactive approach and implementing preventative processes allowed us to alleviate the overall stress levels within our team.
Reflecting on the past Q4, the difference is clear. Thanks to the insights provided by Caldeira Consulting, we not only reduced our stress levels but also saw tangible improvements in our internal processes.
I am immensely grateful to Amanda for her invaluable contributions. Her dedication to our well-being has made a profound difference, and her expertise has left real improvements in the team.”
