2020 has been a whirlwind for us all so far. With Covid-19, Black Lives Matter and the economy, it can feel overwhelming as senior executives and entrepreneurs with what we can do (and not do). But if we allow ourselves to be vulnerable and open, the opportunity for growth opens. Today we’re joined by Martin Enault, the co-founder and CEO of Intellitix. We discuss what role we play as leaders in the mental health dialogue, what we’ve learnt from our personal mental health journeys and what we should strive for in entrepreneurship going forward.

December 18, 2019 2019 Year in Review with Gillian and Heather From OverTime
One of the biggest takeaways we’ve learned from this year is the impact of self-reflection, and protecting regular time and space for this.

So in this episode, Gillian and OverTime’s Programme Director and Associate Heather Taylor Portman playback the insights they have gained from running management and leadership programmes in 2019, what they have learned from the process, and what they think managers should focus on going into 2020.
Hear about practical leadership tools, how OverTime has dealt with lows and leveraged the highs, and what has been learned through facilitating leaders at their ‘Scale Up’ management programme.
