. Again and again I see how managers who make space for reflection, who share their experience and support each other see the benefits, find it impactful. These discussions need to be supported including to understand how this time supports well being and enables people to work effectively.

. Again and again I see the value of reflective practice in different organisations. People sharing, learning and providing each other with support. It’s a privilege to facilitate these discussions, to support people coping in tough environments. Their optimism and passion is inspiring.
