Our inner dialogue is the foundation of self-leadership…… it influences our confidence, decision-making, and emotional resilience.

Strong self-leadership ensures you’re navigating with purpose, creating a team dynamic that thrives on trust and alignment.

As we embrace the fresh start that 2025 offers, it’s the perfect moment to reflect on our past experiences and set our sights on the future

As we approach the end of the year, this is a traditional time to slow down and reflect on the year that has been.

As we expand our capacity to be present and effective in our personal and professional lives, we not only navigate challenges with grace but also unlock the potential for genuine fulfilment and impact.

Giving yourself permission to be a work in progress means recognising the foundation you're building on and acknowledging that growth is an essential part of becoming a more effective leader.

As we approach the end of the year, it’s a natural time for reflection and contemplation. During the festive season’s hustle and bustle, it’s worth taking a few moments to ponder how we measure a year and what wisdom we can extract from it.

Authenticity is a word often bandied around, but do we reflect adequately on what authenticity truly means?

Welcome to the first instalment of my new blog series, where I reflect on the previous month and share some of the themes that are common in many workplaces, lessons learned, and what’s coming up.

These months can drag on as we wait for the sun to come out and revive us with vitamin D. However, just waiting for spring as a motivator will not keep us happy and healthy - and in fact, this approach, is poor self-leadership.

It is possible to reflect on the year in terms of our contributions and, also in terms of the strengths and skills that you’ve used and developed, so that we can take these skills forward more intentionally.

When we take a step back from our day to day work life (whether as a conscious choice or enforced) it can encourage us to reflect more deeply our values and our goals.
