Self-care for Learning & Development professionals
As L&D professionals we focus on giving everyone else what they need to work at their optimal levels, but we do need to check-in with ourselves once in a while, which is why for this month our theme is self-care. In his well-known book ‘The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People’ Stephen R. Covey talked about the importance of ‘sharpening the saw’, and to help with that we are bringing you a list of curated content full of resources for L&D professionals. So whether you want to curl up with a good read, listen to a podcast whilst getting some fresh air, or relax with a TED talk, there’s something for everyone!
