Staying healthy at work: ensuring work is good for us
We know that meaningful work is good for us but work can also have a negative impact on our wellbeing. This week’s daily webinars will focus on those components of MyLeadership that consider all aspects of a workplace that works for everyone.
Problem Solving
Although there is some contention as to the exact meaning of the Chinese character conveying crisis, problems often do present opportunities for new thinking and new ways of working. This webinar takes a systematic approach to defining and solving problems but also includes the role of intuition.
