Humans are designed to respond to the world around us.
Our bodies translate social, emotional, and physical experiences into chemical signals that influence how we think, how we feel, and how we behave. These signals can enhance our abilities, or impare our performance in the workplace.
Performance-impacting conditions like stress, fatigue, poor focus, disconnection or low motivation are all examples of our bodies responding to an environment or social experience without the ability to self-regulate.
To improve performance, we need to manage how people are reacting to their environments. We do this by optimising their environment.
Environmental optimisation
OUR METHODOLOGY
OUR ROLE
Programs designed to enhance productivity - training, incentives, benefits, leadership support, and independence - are common in the workplace, be it through HR frameworks, Health & Wellness initiatives or incentive schemes. But what happens when an employee’s environment is working against them?
Will an incentive drive productivity in an employee who can’t focus?
Will training take hold when a staff members is chronically stressed?
Disengagement with company initiatives can cost an organisation up to 34% of an employee’s annual salary each year*, with retraining, attrition, and low productivity leading to fragmented culture, disenfranchised employees, and lower profitability.
At Life Form, we set the environmental foundations for employees to perform by optimising workplaces to allow professional training, incentives, and policies to do their job—driving engagement, organisational performance, and business impact.

OUR BACKGROUND
From influence to enablement
With over fifteen years of professional experience in consumer engagement, brand strategy, and customer experience, Life Form Founder Braden Loader spent much of his career working alongside some of the world’s largest technology, entertainment, and consumer goods firms.
Within these organisations, principles of behavioural economics, consumer psychology, and human-centred design were frequently applied to brand activations, advertising campaigns, and new products—yet they were seldom brought into the workplace itself.
Why couldn't these same tools, designed to drive behaviour change and enhance productivity, be used to help employees reach their full potential?
Repurposing these engagement techniques, and combining them with a passion for human performance, became the foundation for Life Form.
