TRUSTED IN HIGH-RISK ENVIRONMENTS
Organisations we've worked with
“We had struggled to find training that resonated with our onsite crew - until we partnered with the girls. The sessions were relevant, on-site, and delivered in a way that genuinely connected with our crew. The language, scenarios, and examples reflected real situations our people face. We saw immediate improvements in reporting confidence, bystander action, and team communication.”
HSE Lead, FIFO Site
Kate and Nic covered consent, S.A & S.H, the importance of education around these topics in the industry and left the room thinking a little differently about the change they’d like to make in their workplaces. Their style of facilitation was wonderful, personable, authentic and interactive. I would 10/10 recommend getting them involved in facilitating workshops/keynotes/ presentations on these topics! They were amazing!
EAP Executive Director
“I cannot recommend We Are Consulting highly enough. The training was fun, engaging, and deeply impactful. Our staff said it was the first time anyone had spoken about consent, boundaries, and culture in a way that felt real and non-judgemental. This work has genuinely shifted the way our sites operate. What sets Nic and Kate apart is their ability to blend evidence, trauma-informed practice, and deeply human facilitation. Our crew felt safe, heard, and empowered.”

We built We Are because we kept seeing the same thing: organisations that genuinely wanted to do better, but were being handed tick-box training that changed nothing.
Real culture change doesn't come from a policy update or a one-hour compliance module. It comes from honest conversations, practical tools, and education that actually resonates with the people in the room.
Our work is grounded in:
Evidence-based practice and current research
Trauma-informed delivery that meets people where they are
Prevention-focused approaches that address root causes, not just symptoms
Authentic engagement that works in complex, high-risk environments
Leadership accountability as the foundation for lasting change
A commitment to culture that goes beyond compliance
We're not here to shame, blame, or lecture. We're here to give your people the understanding and skills to do better - and to give your organisation the tools to make that stick.
OUR COMMITMENT
We believe cultural change happens through partnership - not criticism.
Our commitment is to help organisations evolve, not just comply.
We commit to:
Framing inclusion as a shared goal - engaging men as allies, not opponents.
Promoting cultural evolution rather than blame.
Aligning every initiative with prevention, compliance, and reputation protection.
By bringing authenticity, expertise, and humanity to every conversation, we help workplaces become safer, stronger, and more sustainable for everyone.
