Digital Program & Community for Nurses & Midwives
Leadership, Self-Care & Resilience
Dr. Avnesh Ratnanesan (Dr. Avi)
Founder and CEO of Energesse co-created the Self Leadership Experience Program with nurse and midwife leaders, frontliners and employers.
Recognising that nurses and midwives are the backbone of a health system, Dr Avi’s research during the global pandemic revealed that they needed help. As a global expert in the science of health, organisational and business management, enlightens people with practical and creative methods to achieve greater self leadership, performance and evolve human experiences in ‘the new normal’.
Dr Avi’s holistic approach in understanding human behavior and helping leaders to achieve business objectives as well as personal wellbeing ensure long-term performance.
"I experienced kindness, a sense of connection, and empowerment. I would recommend this program to every nurse I work with, and educate, as I see these tools as fundamental to a good healthy sense of self!
This program is outstanding and affordable for everyone. Moving forward I will take deep breaths with each client and meditate 10 mins a day to improve my relationships. Thank you so much for this generous program."
"This program helped me to focus on what I have accomplished and not dwell on what I didn't get done in my day. I have experienced this program as wonderful and very supportive. I already recommended this program to my nursing friend."
"I have experienced this program as very supportive. I loved the fact that I was able to complete the course at a time that worked best for me. But most importantly what became clear reading the Facebook responses was that no matter what field, state or place that you nurse in we are all experiencing a lot of similar issues and it was nice to know you are not alone. I've actually been discussing this program with a lot of my colleagues and how it has helped me to grow and balance me out. I've also had staff comment that they have seen a change in me.
I decided to focus on my mental and physical well-being first! I would recommend this program to graduate Nurses as it is such a big change moving into the nursing workforce!"
"This program helped me to better listen to my feelings, and taking more notice of others. This definitely was a positive experience already, especially the supportive Facebook community. I would recommend this to all of my colleagues for self-kindness."
"I would like to see it run as a program in the health districts!
I enjoy being a participant. I have learned a lot and I have enjoyed Dr Avi's guidance and the support of the nursing community. I will be reflecting on my practice more often to gain insight into my behavior and responses at work."
"Thanks to this program I gained clear insights about what I want and I have set goals that align with my purpose. I would recommend this to everyone who works as a health care practitioner."
