Dear Ann,
As the nights close in around us, and the
economic news gets gloomier (anyone other
than me think the media are to an extent
talking us into a recession?), my theme this
month is light.
It has been a momentous beginning to the
month - perhaps a source of light for the
future - and I've also heard news I want to
pass on to you about a project to bring safe
light to homes that don't have it.

The Obama effect

Turning up the light
In these uncertain times, the World needs
authentic leaders - people who can remain
true to their deepest values, and can lead
from their greatest strengths, with a sense
of humililty. I think and hope that in
President Elect Obama we have that
potential again. As ever, time will tell,
and there are huge challenges, but I'm more
optimistic than I have been for the past
eight years.

Let there be light

Make a real difference to someone's life
In our new back garden is a mature Christmas
tree, planted by the previous owners, and now
a sturdy 6 feet high. We plan to buy it some
lights for Christmas. But here is a story
that brings the privilege of our Christmas
lights into sharp focus.

Back on Track book news
|
|
I was delighted to find last week that my
book, Getting Back on Track - regaining your
confidence and presence at work is now on Google
book search. This means that you can get
a really good preview of it and find out
about stockists. As an author, I'm
constantly amazed by the level of information
available to readers.
