When we lead others, it can be easy to forget to care for ourselves. To truly flourish and grow as an effective leader and trailblazer, it is vital to take time to look after your own mental health and wellbeing.
Authors Anna Eliatamby and Grazia Lomonte look at the vital role self-care plays in leadership and how looking after yourself will also have a positive impact on your workforce. When self-care is made a high priority within an organisation, morale and productivity rises and sickness rates fall.
Healing: Self-care for leaders and their teams

It also includes reflections and activities designed to encourage self-exploration and periods of contemplation.
