SELF LEADERSHIP: MENTAL HEALTH, MINDSET & DOING WHAT MATTERS

According to The World Economic Forum in its Future of Jobs Report, the most important skills that employers are now seeking include complex problem solving, critical thinking and creativity. For these skills to be actualised in the real world, mental health and wellbeing needs to be a priority. When individuals are stressed, anxious and feeling low, it’s difficult to be innovative, think differently, solve problems, understand others and be excited about engaging in opportunities for the future. Many ambitious people are wired for achieving, conditioned to keep busy and pushing to continue working under the constant pressure to succeed, with self-care often taking a back seat. In this vital keynote, Marny will outline the crucial key areas that ambitious individuals need to be aware of to proactively manage their own wellbeing, so they can present their best self in their personal and professional life, and ultimately reach their true potential.

In this presentation, Marny delves into the signs and symptoms of burnout; what can assist a person suffering from burnout in the workplace; the personal & professional adversity that one experiences on a burnout journey, as well as how to turn it into a transformational experience for the future.

PLAY: BENEFITS OF PLAY & HUMOUR IN THE WORKPLACE

In a modern world that often feels fast paced, unpredictable and serious; where we’re constantly hustling, busy and stressed out; it’s easy to let those ‘less important’ leisurely moments slip out of our schedules. But should they? Laughter, fun and play have increasingly been shown to be exactly what the doctor ordered, and in fact, perhaps it should start being what the boss is ordering. Whether it’s boosting our personal wellbeing or elevating our professional performance, perhaps mucking around a bit more needs to be taken more seriously! What is adult PLAY, and how can we do more of it as adults? This seminar talks through the evidence behind play & humour and participants will engage in activities to get their creative brain working and get a taste of how play & laughter can improve performance.
