It's lovely to connect with you again after the summer. I hope you had a chance to get off the busy treadmill of work and life in general.

Heading into September, there is definitely a "back-to-school" feeling in the air. Everyone seems to be talking about routines, traffic and school-books!

Does it fill you with dread or optimism? There are down sides, for sure, but September can also be a great time to Reset and Refocus for the Autumn months.

Every year I run a series of talks on September Reset and Q4 Planning. If you would like to book a 1-Hour Motivational Talk or a Planning Workshop for your team, just pop me an email. All of these sessions can be customised to suit your specific needs and delivered online or in-house.

I look forward to working with you again soon. In the meantime, enjoy September with these Reset Tips (link in the Comments below).

After the distractions of summer, September is a chance to reset and refocus. There is a ‘back to school’ feeling as we try to get back into a routine.

It doesn’t take long for business and work life to ramp back up and before we know it, we are back on that busy, busy treadmill. Our relaxed ‘summer vibe’ is soon eroded. Stress can kick in as we consider all the things we need to get done.

But September is an opportunity too - a chance to reset and regain your focus. Think of it like a mini–New Year!

In this article, I share some tips on how to reset and refocus this in September so you can be productive, effective and stay calm as well!

With increasing 'busyness' and stress levels being reported in the workplace, employee wellbeing has never been more important.

The Ibec National Workplace Wellbeing Day shines a welcome spotlight on wellbeing each year. And I am delighted to once again partner with IBEC to deliver a free webinar on 'Mind Fitness'. You can sign up at the link in Comments below.

Wellbeing initiatives don't have to be complicated, often small tweaks and changes can make a significant difference. Ask your teams and your managers. What is working, what is causing stress, what can be improved? The answers you need are there within your team.

I work with lots of employers to facilitate Employee Wellbeing programmes that help engage and support people. Removing some simple barriers helps to boost performance and productivity too.

Why not launch a Wellbeing programme for your team on National Workplace Wellbeing Day next week?
