At Inspire Confidence, we believe culture is shaped by everyday conversations. When people feel confident and valued, those conversations drive performance, collaboration, and positive change. Yet, a 2023 study found that over 70% of UK workers felt their jobs harmed their self esteem. Low self esteem fuels anxiety and fear, making it harder for teams to adapt, grow, and thrive. I saw firsthand, while working with NHS consultants, how confidence acts as a buffer against challenging environments. In 2021, I launched the pre-cursor to my Quiet Power programme to help nurses strengthen their self belief. In under two years, the hospital achieved an ‘Outstanding’ CQC rating, and as nursing teams began voicing their ideas, and advocating for patients, we saw improved health outcomes and greater adaptability towards change. The shift was clear: a culture where people deeply believed their voices mattered created energy, resilience, and collaborative working. Recent research backs this up. A 2025 Aston University study of 50,000 employees found that self belief not only drives initiative and teamwork, but also strengthens ethics and resistance to pressure. Quiet Power is built on this concept. Using our unique Four Pillars framework, we help people grow lasting confidence from the inside out — not loud or performative, but grounded, supportive, and deeply effective.
