How Make Meaningful Change and Stop Being Indecisive

Is there something – or someone – stopping you from making a meaningful life change? I got a call yesterday from someone I used to work with who felt very indecisive about moving from one role to another. She’s sought advice from all corners and has gotten mixed responses.

Intelligent Impact: Do your colleagues see you the way you see yourself?

How to Say ‘No’: Thinking differently about it and being better at it

Do you know how to say no at work? I’ve lost count of the number of people I’ve worked with who are overwhelmed by work pressures, yet continue to take them on.

Decoding Gravitas – what is it and can it be developed?

What is gravitas and can we develop more of it as colleagues and team leaders? I often get asked by people, especially people working towards a promotion, if it’s possible to develop more gravitas quickly. You know, that intangible quality belonging to those really credible, authentic, quietly confident people we do business with. We somehow […]

The Impact of Self-Management on Leadership and Teamwork

In the last blog we looked at why it’s so important to be clear on our identity and purpose. This week, as part of my Future You at Work model, we’ll focus on the precursors to developing great social and emotional intelligence for dealing with others: self-awareness and self-management.

It’s time to update ourselves and our teams for the increasingly tech-heavy world of work: Industry 4.0. Are you ready to dial up what makes us human?
