It all depends on how you look at things. Many employees either want to, for social and well-being reasons or for economic reasons, have to continue working beyond age 65. There is clear evidence that the age at which we are retiring is increasing. However, it appears… Read more »
I don’t really do New Year Resolutions and generally don’t like lists so I thought a list of resolutions would be an excellent idea! A resolution is defined as a “firm decision to do or not to do something”. Here is my list of things that I… Read more »
“The real art of conversation is not only to say the right thing at the right place but to leave unsaid the wrong thing at the tempting moment.” (Dorothy Neville).

Conflict resolution in a wolf pack I happened to come across an extract in a book I was reading recently which detailed how a pack of wolves is structured and the roles that each wolf has in the pack; the pack works because everyone has a role to play and each knows… Read more »
I recently went to see the film The Artist (I know everyone else probably saw it ages ago and I am a bit behind the times). I was not quite sure what to expect, particularly with all the hype, however it is one of the best films I… Read more »

I have found the experience of coaching extremely positive. From the initial assessment of my traits (using the CDP Model) to working one to one with Naomi, I have managed to identify personal development objectives and have been provided with new techniques and support to achieve them.
