Whilst none of the Leadership team felt immediate risk of burning out, they were all aware that they could be more productive if they could sustain their cognitive performance better. Also, there was a shared desire to ensure they built their cognitive stamina, to have more to offer those around them outside the workplace.

“I started thinking I was fine, and that nothing was wrong, but that’s because I had never stopped. The programme has definitely been a journey of realization…extremely valuable“ Global Head of HR

“I am much more conscious of my form and what I need to do to sustain it. I have really felt the benefits and have been sailing through tasks I would normally put off or deliberate on.“ CEO

“By tracking you get some good signposts that something isn’t right, which normally you wouldn’t realise until you blew a gasket“ Co-Founder

“I got a tonne out of it; I really like the data and the tracking – through this approach I changed a lot of things in small ways, and it’s helped me understand what I need to do to get out of the ruts much more quickly.” Head of Strategy
