Onward Shift

The Power of Onward Shift - A true moment we’ll forever remember. We had the honour to have Onward Shift join our virtual event at Kier Transportation in commemoration of International Men’s Day. We specifically asked for Vish to share his personal story, reflections and answer any questions from across the division. Words cannot describe how engaging he is, within in person and virtual setting. A true professional and true icon, passionately speaking on what needs to change within the industry but also sharing actionable tips for everyone to utilise. Across the division we had continuous feedback about how open, honest and raw Vish and his persona is. Something that isn’t taught, a true expert. We cannot thank you enough for this session and excited to have more sessions with Vish and Onward Shift at Kier Transportation!

I felt enlightened by your excellent presentation.

Vishal and Onward Shift represent everything you need when you're struggling; compassion, care & commitment! Flawless!

We invited Vish to speak to our construction students as part of our New City College Hackney Campus Mental Wealth Festival and the impact was outstanding. He delivered a powerful and honest talk about his journey with mental health while working as an electrician, which really resonated with our learners. We had 130 students in attendance, and they were fully engaged throughout. They asked thoughtful questions, and many even stayed behind afterwards to speak with him one-on-one a true reflection of how much his story connected with them. Vish was completely authentic and humble, and his message was both inspirational and meaningful. His openness about the importance of seeking help and how it changed his life left a lasting impression on our students. Keep up the great work, Vishal you are making a real difference and leading positive change in the construction industry, especially around men’s mental health. I would highly recommend this experience to any college or construction company looking to support and inspire their people.

Great talk very inspirational!

I love everything Onward Shift stands for. The podcast is brilliant and Vish and his colleagues are clearly passionate about raising awareness of mental health in the construction industry and helping those who need support.

Honest, open discussion. Very good session. Thank you

Vish is the best mental health speaker I have ever heard. Fantastic session. Really resonated with our learners. Very much recommend this team.

Love the Onward Shift podcast, so many stories from those who work in construction talking about real issues that happen on site every day. I've learned so much about the challenges contraction workers face everyday. Vish is an excellent host and it's great to see someone so passionate about helping people's mental health and living better lives.

Really lovely to hear someone share his personal experiences.

Vish's mission to make it easier for men working in construction to talk about their mental health is a crucial one if we are to be a happy and healthy nation. His honesty, humour and empathy shine through. He really connects with his audience. I came away thinking much more deeply about the pressures men experience in the world of work and how much more we need to support them.

Vish came to deliver a talk at our college to a large group of construction students, as part of a mental health awareness event. His story was was honest and inspiring, and his delivery very down to earth and relatable. He does such a good job of communicating that its okay to need mental health support, and not a weakness to ask for it. The students showed genuine interest and curiosity, and im sure the message Vish shared with them will have a lasting impact on many. Thank you Vish, look forward to having you back again in the future.
