Bulletin 7: Useful resources & learning opportunities

Since lockdown began, we have all been increasingly inundated with information. In view of the plethora of competing voices, we have taken the decision to ease off on our own contributions. In future, this bulletin will be published fortnightly.

Susan David's helpful perspective on emotional agility provides us with a good pathway to our latest guide: The Meyler Campbell Guide to Emotions and Emotional Intelligence Part #1.
