Getting the Best out of Yourself When Working From Home
WEBINAR – Getting the Best out of Yourself When Working From Home
Given what is happening in the world at the moment with the coronavirus, many of us are having to adapt to working from home, do you find the prospect exciting, or daunting?
Working from home can sound like an appealing situation, but faced with the reality are you struggling to engage and get work done?
Time away from difficult work colleagues might be a benefit, but what are the emotional impacts of being isolated from your team?
Sometimes working from home can stop your home from actually feeling like home.
During this webinar, you will explore how understanding the neuroscience of the mind can help you to plan and manage your way through these fast-changing times, and help you to get the best out of yourself when working from home.
Getting the Best out of Yourself When Working From Home
This webinar is hosted by a trained mentor and focuses on the group’s experiences, ideas, and advice to help you to get the best out of yourself whilst working from home.
This online workshop will focus on:

- The impact of others on our productivity at home, including how to effectively manage the needs and expectations of others.
- Address common homeworking pitfalls, such as:
- Procrastination
- Isolation
- Overeating

You can discuss your concerns with a group of like-minded people in a safe environment. The discussion will be lead by one of our Mentors, who will be able to offer guidance and offer suggestions to help you create practical plans and address common working from home pitfalls.

What Others Say
Clare Horner –
This was a really useful session. It highlighted that all of us have some unique and common concerns and challenges. Breakout sessions are useful and integral part of the session too.
Tim’s presentation was great balance of science and practical application, giving us the tools to adapt to our ‘new normal’, challenging old habits, and embracing the opportunity for a new, and more healthy way to approach our work and family life.
Thank you.
Mike Habieb –
A thought provoking webinar with a great mix of things to think about, do or reflect on. Having a diverse group of people gave me a range of perspectives and made it very enjoyable. A lot of fun mixed with learning which I hope will set me up for future success.

I enjoyed and learnt from the variety of inputs presented- text, voice, questions, prompts, pictures. I appreciated the practicality in the presentation and, at the same time, it wasn’t ‘dumbed down’ ie there was a good balance between nuance and ‘bite-sized’ simplicity.
Gareth Coyne –
Tim’s content was very insightful and relevant to the current working situation. It made me reflect on some of the truths I needed to accept and some of the alternative perspectives to take.
