Welcome to the first edition of In Equilibrium in 2010, we’ve noticed the mornings are definitely getting lighter and hopefully we’ll also have some warmer temperatures to look forward to … and not just for those lucky people who have booked a spring break abroad!
In this edition, as well as all our regular features, we introduce you to a course we have recently developed and launch our new Ask the Expert section.

Managers Managing Change Course
We have recently developed this new course which has been designed to offer managers a greater understanding of change, together with introducing them to a range of practical change management tools which can be used to develop a change management development plan.
Whenever we look for a new supplier, we always like to check out their references. In order to make it as easy as possible for you to see what our customers think of us, we regularly update our What Our Clients Say page and are only too happy to provide references on request.
Our tip this edition concerns social relationships and offers a suggestion to anyone who would like to enhance or improve theirs.
In our new section we plan to feature a question from one of our readers, which we feel may be of interest to others, together with an answer from one of our consultants.
Question “Do you have any tips which would help me get out of bed on the first alarm in the morning, rather than stealing another ten minutes in the warm, which is enough to throw my morning routine out of kilter?”
This edition’s answer has been provided by Dr David Mason Brown
