There are lots of things that have an impact on our behaviours and opportunities, from local infrastructure to local policy in our county. Each month we'll share some useful thoughts and blogs to help you consider some of these influences:
- Adaptive leadership during COVID-19 – building trust, collective decision making, learning and transparency and bridging the gap between science, policy and practice.
- ‘How to build habits and design your life’ – an episode from Kate Ellliot's 'Little Challenges' podcast with behavioral strategist, Samuel Salzer.
