Talk Title: Manage your energy, not your time

What's it about? There are only so many hours in the day, and many of us are exhausted from working longer hours to try to keep up with life’s demands. Energy is a different story. It comes from our mind, emotions, body, and spirit. Energy is everything to creatives. We need to recognise the costs of energy-draining behaviours and invest in re-fuelling ourselves. By being more aware of the impact of our energy and emotions on those around us, we can also fire up more creative, productive and satisfied teams.
