Why Mattering?

When people experience mattering:

• Trust grows

• Psychological safety increases

• Collaboration improves

• Turnover decreases

• Teams become more resilient during stress and change

The Mattering Kit helps teams move from good intentions to consistent action—so belonging isn’t dependent on personality or chance, but embedded into how the organization operates.

Who It’s For

• Program administrators and directors

• Coaches and mentors

• Leadership teams

• Trainers and facilitators

• Any team wanting stronger connections, clarity, and care

How It’s Used

• Staff meetings & retreats

• Onboarding new team members

• Coaching and reflective supervision

• Leadership development and TOTs

• Culture-building and restorative practices

The Mattering Kit doesn’t ask people to be more caring.
It gives teams the tools to show care—clearly, consistently, and sustainably.
