Overview

Cross Civil Service

As human beings, we’re very good at operating on autopilot. We can be creatures of habit, forming repetitive routines which allow us to perform complex activities without ever really thinking about them. Sometimes, this can be a handy skill, freeing our minds to think about other, more important, tasks. At other times, it can be a hindrance, allowing bad habits to develop, or causing us to feel bored and lacking in motivation.

This short workshop will help put you back in charge of your conscious thinking. You’ll assess the typical habits you have, both in work and at home, and you’ll learn skills and strategies for making new habits or breaking old ones. Whether you’re managing change, or experiencing change, this course will help challenge your cognitive approach.
