"It is less stressful having my office one metre from my bed – rather than spending 2.5 hours every day commuting. I use my extra time to get more sleep and regular exercise by going for a 45-minute walk every morning with a friend. I have time to have breakfast with my kids. Before lockdown, I would always leave before the kids were up. Instead, we gained a beautiful moment of family time before their school and my work." Mother of three, Caroline JULIEN-VALLERIE, sees many positives coming out of the #COVID19 crisis.

To play my part in keeping our team connected, I’ve made it a point to catch up with everyone 1-on-1 since we’ve been working from home. I’ve realised there are people I don’t necessarily need to speak to every day to get my work done, but if I was in the office, I’d be touching base with them all the time. I feel it’s vital to check in on each other and see how everyone is doing, so I’ve kept those casual conversations going to ensure we feel engaged and supported within our team."
