This book is a must-read, with great examples, thought-provoking analysis and practical strategies that help leaders to 'reset' and thrive at work. Brooke Young, Director, Young Consulting Group Karen has a way of articulating and simplifying the overwhelming, self-sabotaging thoughts, feelings and behaviours that plague even the most stoic of leaders. Refreshingly practical and gently encouraging, FlexAbility is a must-read for any leader looking for a pragmatic, reassuring, positive and immediately executable playbook for everyday success. Amanda Kramer, Head of Marketing, Homely.com.au FlexAbility couldn't be arriving at a better time for so many in our communities. The long-term drain on resilience for so many around us has been significant. To change our environment starting with ourselves is key, and FlexAbility provides useful and well thought through approaches and activities to move forward, as we chart a path from the interim normal of today to a future where hope and optimism fills the gaps of uncertainty and anxiety. Mike Schneider, Chair, Love Me Love You; Board Member, Corporate Mental Health Alliance Australia; Managing Director, Bunnings Group This is such a relevant and helpful guide to 2022 and beyond! The current working environment is full of traps - we are always on, but expectations feel higher than ever, and we risk achieving less and feeling less purposeful. It seems counterintuitive - if not blasphemous - to think that we can become more effective and more at peace with ourselves, but FlexAbility provides a guide that will help every business leader be more aware of their wellbeing and effectiveness. Duncan Phillips, Chief Executive UK & Ireland, IVC Evidensia In this hyper-relevant book for today's world of work, FlexAbility provides high-performing leaders with a comprehensive and pragmatic guide to protecting wellbeing by learning to influence what matters most. Dr Morley deftly combines research with real-life stories to bring to life the challenges of leading during a pandemic, along with the solutions for doing so successfully. Dr Kelly Windle, Vice-President Organisation Capability, Bluescope The intense disruption of the past two years has placed significant and untold demands on leaders across all organisations. FlexAbility couldn't be timelier. It provides valuable, evidence-based insights into the challenges faced by us all, together with accessible and practical advice to help us identify what matters to each of us, as well as clear guidance to enable us to reimagine and reshape our lives for the future and for the better. Diana Vernon, Principal, Methodist Ladies College, Melbourne FlexAbility is an outstanding piece of work. Living a 'rich, purpose-filled life, doing meaningful work, while prioritising your wellbeing' is within everyone's grasp. I wish I'd written this work. It is a game-changer. Mark Butler, Clinical Psychotherapist I thoroughly recommend this book. It is engaging and highly relevant to today's working pressures when so many I know are exhausted. The evidence-based approach, coupled with practical examples and rich and thought-provoking content, really help develop a more personal sense of how to achieve direction, change and balance. Finally, a book that offers practical and relevant advice about how to bring direction, change and balance back to working life. Dr Jessica Triay, Clinical Unit Head Endocrinology, Bendigo Health
