Dear Readers
 I'm delighted to welcome you to my second issue of ON!, which this month aims to give you a gentle prod! As we approach the festive break, it's time to start thinking about next year and the opportunities it holds for you. It's your chance to take a step back and think about how to realise those ambitions and plans you've been harbouring.

FEATURES
 The end of the year is a great time to take a step back, and assess the balance between the many areas in your life - career, family, leisure and relationships. During your festive break, why not take a moment to evaluate your priorities, and build an exciting plan for the coming year. With these five easy steps from life coach Dr Andrée Bates, you'll find making positive changes is not as tough as you think... |
|
Time
to give?
 You'd
love to spend a little time helping others, but work takes all your available
hours and energy. Sound familiar? Well, think again! It is possible to combine
a successful career with voluntary work. Sonia Wilson explains how
you can put something back without giving up the day job, and even reap some
benefit into the bargain |
|
Make your stand!
 You'd like to make some changes in your worklife, but every time you try to broach the subject with your manager, your mouth goes dry, your knees turn to jelly, and your voice turns into a squeak. Time to brush up your assertiveness skills, says Penny Cottee |

A
question of balance
 Spending
all your time at work, dashing home via the supermarket to look after the
family, and collapsing on the settee in front of the television... there
has to be more to life than this. Elizabeth Baker takes a look at
the work-life balance debate, and identifies the flexible options open to
you. |
|
Could
YOU be a flexible worker?
 You
might dream about saying goodbye to the daily commute and working from home,
but what's it really like? Claire Portman talked to a group of PAs
to find out how they swung the work-life balance in their favour. Have they
managed to grab more time for themselves? Or are there hidden disadvantages
to leaving the 9-5 behind? |
