Carl Jones is a professional speaker and trainer who specialises in helping organizations improve their employee wellbeing. He is the founder of the SLAP Technique, a simple and effective way to spot and manage the signs of employee stress and burnout.
Carl’s journey to becoming a wellbeing expert began in 2011, when he was working as front line Police officer. After being shot at 6 times and winning a National Bravery award, he developed PTSD. From this he saw first-hand the impact that trauma, stress and burnout was having on him and his team members, and he knew that something had to be done.
Carl began researching wellbeing and developing his own techniques for helping people cope with stress. In 2015, he wrote The Caveman Principles book and it started the foundation of Elevated Training Ltd (2022), a company that now provides motivational speaking engagements and training on employee wellbeing.
The SLAP Technique is the centrepiece of Carl’s work. It is a simple acronym that stands for Stability, Listen, Adjust, and Patience. The technique helps people to identify the signs of stress in themselves and others, to listen to the concerns of those who are stressed, to ask the right questions, and to provide appropriate support.
Carl has delivered the SLAP Technique and received high praise and great testimonials. He has also written a book on stress, called “The Caveman Principles : Dealing with everyday stress” to help those who are struggling.
Carl is a passionate advocate for employee wellbeing. He believes that everyone has the right to work in a healthy and happy environment. He is committed to helping organisations create workplaces where people can thrive.

- It is a simple and easy-to-remember acronym.
- It can be used by anyone, regardless of their level of experience.
- It is effective in helping people to spot the signs of stress and burnout and then start to help.
