Course Overview

Peter Quarry’s leadership survival kit contains the ability to know that not everything is unpredictable, to control what can be managed, find good people with whom to de-stress and debrief, the importance of staying healthy and taking regular breaks, conserving mental energy and ensuring you and your team have balanced lives.
