To build up your confidence, emotional resilience and self belief, we incorporate emotional training into various aspects of our programmes. Boosting your EQ will quickly help you become more independent and a better team-player. Acquiring these soft skills and coping mechanisms will also be generally beneficial, even beyond work, and especially in times of stress.
Coffee is our vehicle for social change
Not just coffee, but a recipe for a Bettr world
Bettr's heartware
Our social programmes are what defines us and makes us different, Bettr. We help marginalised individuals improve their employability via holistic personal development, and provide work opportunities for them at inclusive workspaces.
Holistic training
Our programmes may be built around coffee, but what we want is for our trainees to gain skills, confidence and a sense of empowerment. By focusing holistically on their growth, they will be better equipped to navigate life’s many challenges.
It takes a village
Our broad-based approach to human development means we often pair up with like-minded partners to provide opportunities to our trainees – options and possibilities that they may not otherwise have access to.
