Here's how it rolled out:

20 CEOs & leaders from local charities and businesses gathered at Yellowave Club House for day. Prior to the event participants had suggested they wanted to 1. connect with others, 2. get some really good input and 3. 'take the weight off for a bit' so I designed a programme to acheive these objectives.

On a freezing cold and calm day Yellowave, in its prime beachfront location, provided the perfect environment for the group to discuss and develop ideas, thinking first about what we are like when we are at our very best and how others are positively affected when we are healthy and in-flow.

After a fantastic lunch we looked at the causes of stress, our responses and the pillars of resilience before finishing with an audit of our well-being and time to create a strategy for integrating rest and work as partners - not opposites.

I ended the day even more convinced that we need a new conversation about the future of leadership and how we set-up and manage ourselves to thrive in roles which carry responsibility, pressure, challenge and expectation everyday.

Thanks to everyone who attended, sorry to those who missed out this time.
