VIDEO: Say YES! to being appropriately selfish

This #YESvember we encourage you to say YES! to being appropriately selfish.

We know that’s possibly not something you hear every day. Most of us have been brought up to avoid being selfish as it conjures up connotations of being self centred. But knowing what you need and saying ‘no’ when it is necessary has its benefits.

In his video created especially for #YESvember, Ben Morton, Leadership Mentor and Performance Coach, shares his knowledge and gives us great insight into self care, explaining how we cannot give what we do not have ourselves. 

By Ben Morton for Alive!

“I feel like they own and care for the project as much as we do! I would not use anyone else for my creative work and think Alive is ahead of the game.”

Jo Hobbs | Communications Manager

“Alive wowed us during the pitch process and they didn’t stop wowing us throughout the whole project. Every person we worked with at Alive were so friendly, knowledgeable and clearly passionate about what they do. They have worked with us to really understand what we do and have created a new brand and website that really stands out from our competitors. Thank you!”

Louise Burnard, Head of Marketing and Communications UK — Be | Shaping the Future

“Alive worked seamlessly as an extension of our team, quickly understanding our business and customers. They’re reliable, patient and consistently follow through, embracing the revision process, which is invaluable for complex projects like a rebrand and website refresh.”

Emily Stoten | Marketing Director

“The whole project was amazing!…
As part of our team, Alive armed us with everything we needed. We didn’t have to do all the thinking and driving – Alive did this for us.”

Julie Taylor | Head of Group Communications

“Outstanding! Informative, developmentally appropriate, vitally fun and engaging. We really value Alive’s innovative approach.”

Kath Evans | Director of Children’s Nursing
