On 8th October 2018, we held our annual Strategy Conference focusing on 'Contrarian Thinking'. Among the speakers, included Margaret Heffernan, an international businesswoman, author, interviewer, and TED speaker.

Just a few of the practical pieces of advice she gave included:

-Ensure you have real friends at work not just colleagues.

-Get enough sleep as it is the bedrock of mental wellbeing.

-Accept that collaborations are not always harmonious – the best ones are often scrappy in the quest to do something great and a nay-sayer can crystalise your thinking most effectively.

-Be willing to speak up if you see things that you don’t believe should be happening.

-Be open to the fact that you might not be right and be open to asking searching questions.

-What would we see if we were wrong?
