The last few months of the year can feel a bit odd. Deadlines seem to multiply, energy dips, and focus drifts. No surprise if productivity takes a hit, and it becomes harder to stay productive at work.
The good news? A few small tweaks can make life feel more manageable and help keep things moving.
Summer should feel like a break. Especially for parents. But if you run a business, the summer holidays often bring a very different kind of pressure.
The school gates close, routines go out the window, and suddenly you’re trying to manage childcare, activities, and snack requests while still answering emails and keeping things running. For business owners and managers with young families, the summer break can feel anything but restful.
When you’re running a small business, losing one key team member to holiday or sickness can feel like everything grinds to a halt.
That’s where cross-training comes in.
Wellbeing for business leaders is often overlooked because your time and energy are directed at keeping everything and everyone else afloat: customers, staff, operations, deadlines, and more.

It’s about building a stable, motivated team that helps your business grow. In this post, we’ll explore practical, proven strategies you can implement today to retain your best talent.

But making flexible working work for your business takes careful planning, good communication, and the right tools.
The days are getting shorter, the weather’s turning chilly, and let’s face it: mornings can feel like a heroic feat. But what if embracing Hygge in the office could make your workplace as cosy as your duvet? Welcome to Hygge (pronounced hoo-gah), the Danish art of cosiness that’s perfect for brightening up even the darkest of workdays!
