With 2009 guaranteed to be a year of uncertainty and change, millions of employers and employees across the UK are facing unprecedented challenges as they head back to work now that the seasonal festivities are over.
However, the Institute of Leadership & Management (ILM) believes that managers should look forward to the New Year with optimism rather than apprehension and make resolutions that will help themselves, their team and their organisation grow stronger.
Penny de Valk, Chief Executive of ILM, said: “You can almost feel a collective sense of people holding their breath to see what 2009 is going to bring, but the start of a New Year provides a real opportunity to think about what to do differently.
“In the current climate of fear and uncertainty, it has never been more important to go into the year ahead with confidence and a fresh approach. Rather than dreading going back to work on the first day of 2009, afraid of having to make difficult decisions, managers must resolve to act on changes that need to be made, seize opportunities and build a good management approach for the future.”
