People aren’t the problem.
When work is designed with humans in mind, safety, wellbeing, and performance follow.
I’m Christina Byrne, founder of The Human Project and The Mothering Project. I work with leaders, HR teams, and safety professionals responsible for psychosocial risk in complex environments — people who care deeply about their organisations and their people, but are often stretched and navigating competing priorities.
The Human Project was created to support organisations and professionals to manage psychosocial safety with clarity, care, and practical systems that work in the real world.

Why Choose The Human Project?
Leadership Clarity and Confidence
We translate complex psychosocial requirements into clear priorities and practical next steps. HR teams and leaders know exactly where to focus, reducing overwhelm, uncertainty, and reactive decision-making. Through one-to-one coaching, leaders and professionals build resilience, navigate career transitions, and step into change with confidence.
Safer, Sustainable Workplaces
Psychosocial risk is embedded into systems, processes, and ways of working — protecting both people and the organisation. Our approaches are evidence-informed, defensible, and designed to meet regulatory expectations while supporting sustainable performance.
Reduced Leadership Load
By strengthening systems rather than placing responsibility on individuals, we reduce cognitive load, uncertainty, and risk. Leaders gain confidence in their obligations and clarity in how to lead well under pressure.
Practical, actionable solutions
Our plans and frameworks are designed to work in real organisations, with real constraints. No tick-box compliance or glossy models — just practical solutions that can be implemented, maintained, and sustained.
Human-centred system design
Psychosocial safety is built into how work actually happens — not added on as an afterthought. Employees and leaders feel supported, understood, and able to perform at their best, improving engagement, wellbeing, and trust.
Reflective, one-to-one support
While much of this work happens within organisations, I also work one-to-one with leaders and professionals who need space to pause, reflect, and think clearly amid complexity.

THE MOTHERING PROJECT
Tune in for honest human conversations
The Mothering Project is for women, carers, and empathetic leaders navigating work, care, and identity — and wondering when exactly the mental load gets its own day off.
