For the Monday-Friday crew, Friday is the big day. You wake up to chants of ‘one more day’ in your head as you skip off to work to round the week off and finally have your well earned weekend break! What happens when the week is dragging on, your motivation levels are depleted and Friday just won’t end?
Over the years, time management has been a pillar of how effectively we can work. However, time runs out, and it doesn’t matter what your experience level is or how much knowledge you have, there are always only 24 hours in a day.
There’s no denying that we’re currently going through a lot of change. With the current COVID-19 situation we are all facing change in both our personal and professional lives. But how are we reacting to the change we're going through and how can we manage it both for ourselves and as leaders for the business and our teams?
Lynsey Whitmarsh, Managing Director of Hemsley Fraser UK, spoke recently about what it’s like being a female leader, who has inspired her and whether she’s encountered any barriers along the way.
Collaboration, teamwork, working together. Whatever phrase you coin it with, ultimately collaboration brings people closer together to work as a team.
For many in L&D and HR, 2023 is the first 2020s year where the pandemic hasn’t acutely disrupted strategic planning and operations. Yet, Covid-19 has changed organizational life, business needs, and employee expectations forever.
For almost 80 years, we have understood the motivating power of a sense of belonging. In 1943, Abraham Maslow posited that people were motivated by an ascending hierarchy of needs. Once our physiological and safety needs are met, the next most basic need has to do with what Maslow called love and belonging. In line with Maslow’s research, continuing studies show that when people feel a sense of belonging, they are more productive, motivated and engaged. The challenge for any organization is how to address individual behaviors that inhibit belonging and how to develop behaviors that support that sense of belonging. Hemsley Fraser can help your teams and employees understand their role in building a workplace in which everyone feels that sense of belonging and in which the importance of valuing the unique contributions of each individual is clearly articulated. We know you choose to do this because it’s the right thing to do, but we also help you articulate the sound business reasons for these actions.
People describe resilience in many different ways: as ‘mental toughness’, ‘emotional stability’, ‘grit’ or ‘perseverance’. Perhaps more helpfully, we can think of resilience as the capacity to respond effectively to pressure and ‘bounce back’ from difficult situations - our levels of resilience determine how quickly we return to a state of equilibrium and become functional again. The way we behave in our response to certain events - whether we bounce back or spiral downwards - will depend on how we perceive and interpret the situation. When we’re positive and confident, we feel in control. But if our positivity and confidence are damaged, the situation we’re facing can suddenly seem insurmountable, creating feelings of helplessness, anger or anxiety.
