This month’s top tip comes from our Senior Adviser and Facilitator, Mary Harwood.

The more pressured your job as a leader, the more value in enjoying something outside work which engages your body and soul—which makes your heart sing. It might be music, family, meditation, sport, dancing, volunteering, craft—anything which works for you. What matters is that it provides physical, emotional and spiritual separation from the identity you use at work. Resilient leaders value themselves beyond the work they do. By being committed to something outside work, they encourage others to do the same, thereby leading to a saner, happier and more productive workplace.
