About

I used to get the phone call when it was already too late. A board, a CEO, a HR team, not calling to prevent a crisis, but to clean one up. Someone had already burned out. Already resigned. Already lodged a complaint or commenced legal action.After more than 20 years as an employment lawyer, I saw the same pattern repeat itself too many times to ignore.While my practice continues to focus on employment law, workplace investigations, business protection, dispute resolution and organisational change, my purpose is simple: helping leaders create workplaces where people feel safe, included and able to thrive before problems escalate into crises.Compliance alone has never built a culture worth staying in. That's why I wrote a couple different playbooks for leaders.📚 Author of Broken to Safe (Amazon Best Seller) and Rise Up: A Guide to Leading with Inclusion, practical guides that help leaders build psychologically safe, inclusive and high-performing workplaces.⚖️ Employment lawyer, leadership and workplace culture adviser translating complex legal obligations into practical leadership actions.🎤 Keynote speaker on workplace culture, inclusion, psychosocial risk, discrimination law and psychological safety for boards, executives and HR leaders across Australia.💡 My mission is to help organisations move from compliance to culture, from reaction to prevention, and from broken to safe.📬 Speaking enquiries via Saxton Speakers or direct message.📖 Learn more at https://www.linkedin.com/redir/suspicious-page?url=faycalderone%2ecom
