In This Free Interview We Explore…

Bestselling author Tony Schwartz extolls the importance of creating personal energy at work, and the necessity for organisations to have beds in the office where people can sleep! If we do that, maybe it will wake up the workplace.

  • Why the big impetus to change in life doesn’t come from great opportunity, it comes from pain.
  • To get high productivity from someone, is not to demand more of them, but to actually meet their core needs
  • Why the world has a human energy crisis – renewing our energy (physical, mental, emotional, spiritual) is the key to getting more done with the energy we spend.
  • Why taking naps during the work day means you get more done, of a higher standard
