Anthony and Sean applied learnings from management in high-performance sport to launch and lead their own successful businesses including:
- The work environment is fundamental to the health, retention, and performance of employees and therefore business success
- Quality data is a key foundation to understanding employees
- A coaching mindset for managers to help teams thrive
- Demonstrating care for employees by prioritising their health and well-being leads to a loyal and productive workforce
However, in their roles as clinical health care providers, Sean and Anthony were supporting an increasing number of workers burnt out, in pain, de-motivated and presenting mental health concerns. Their clients frequently explained the main source of their difficulties came from work environments poorly designed and managed. Stories relating to a lack of organisational care, poor manager skill, unmanageable workloads, limited autonomy, poor role clarity, and the expectation that it was the individual’s responsibility to manage well-being outside of work hours via well-being platforms and EAP programs.
Based on this experience they weren’t surprised to learn that mental health disability and workers compensation claims were fast becoming the biggest general workplace problem. They asked the question…. How do we help make everyday organisations operate more like high performance sport organisations so they can better protect worker well-being while supporting high performance…reducing the need for reactive clinical health care in the process?
The answer was twofold…
-
Make supportive psychosocial work environments central to the way organisations operate.
-
Supplement improved work environments by integrating proactive well-being action and self-care into the workday.
And Mibo was born…

What we do?
Enhance understanding
Drawing on learnings from high performance sport organisations, mibo offers a unique approach to quantitative analysis and risk assessment – covering psychosocial safety climate, work design, relationships, experiences, behaviors, and related health/productivity outcomes. Our dashboard connects to ongoing evaluation, empowering risk prioritization, causal factor exploration, risk management, and promotion of genuine care.
Optimise systems
Our advanced technologies streamline the management of the psychosocial environment, offering simplicity, convenience, time-efficiency, and cost-effectiveness – effectively bridging the gap between understanding and action.
Enable action
Too often, good intentions to improve the psychosocial environment are not realised. Via our wholistic rather than risk based lens, enhanced understanding, and optimized systems, we empower timely and effective action. Including increased senior management commitment and staff consultation, improved management skill and team collaboration, and the integration of positive psychosocial habits into the work day.
