Self Development Activities

  • Find ways to develop yourself further so you continue to contribute to our organisational strategy and success.
  • When challenged or things are not going to plan, stand back and give yourself the space and time to think about other ways to tackle the situation.
  • When working on or leading a project, think about potential risks and discuss how these would be managed with your colleagues or People Leader.
