ABOUT US
HOW WE’RE DIFFERENT
We are the UK’s only resilience and leadership development provider that reinvests all of its profits into promoting mental health in community settings.
With almost 20 years combined resilience training experience between us, we have worked with thousands of individuals, in the UK and abroad.
Resilience is created through action.
We use behavioural and positive psychology, neuroscience, medical research, Gestalt principles and a dose of creativity to show people how resilience is created through action.

Our ethos
If organisations are to navigate an increasingly uncertain future and prosper in the face of difficulty, the inner strength and self-knowledge of the team are vital.
Each of us possess the most complex known thing in the universe, and it sits between our ears. When we use this 500 trillion node network creatively, share information and learn through experimentation, we strengthen and grow; we become more resilient.
Improving our understanding of how our minds work is the most urgent task of the 21st century.
Our social enterprise model enables Light Box Leadership to fulfil this mission in organisational and community settings.
