The document discusses an app called Impraise that allows users to receive anonymous feedback instantly after events like meetings or presentations. It allows feedback that is more frequent than traditional annual performance reviews. The app sends colleagues a link to provide feedback so users can learn how they are perceived in the moment.

Stop eating unhealthily at work
You need to treat your body
likeasupercar.Putpoorquality
fuel into it and you will get
poorperformanceback.That’s
particularlytruewhenitcomes
to what you eat at work.
Knowing what to avoid is
the first step. Stay away from
high glycemic index (GI)
foodssuchasriceandpotatoes,
which release sugars into the
bloodstream quickly. Fried or
fattyfoodsslowdowndigestion,
so not only do they leave you
lethargic,theyalsoincreaseyour
bad cholesterol levels.
Ifyoubringinyourlunch,be
prepared. Cook a large batch
of soup or chilli on a Sunday
evening, so you can take it in
throughout the week.
You can also prepare snacks
at home. I have one called
beet brownies, where I mix
dark chocolate and beetroot,
then bake it in the oven. It has
low GI and a huge amount of
iron. But the best way to avoid
unhealthysnacksistoeliminate
them or substitute them for
healthier alternatives, such as
eating dark chocolate instead
of a regular chocolate bar.
To stay energised and avoid
the 4pm slump, I advise my
clients to drink water and eat
proteinwitheverymeal:itkeeps
you fuller for longer. And no
energy drinks – they’re full of
sugar, which will spike your
blood sugar levels.
Makeyourselfawareofwhat
you’re eating. I get clients to
keep a food diary, including
writingdownhowtheyfeelafter
eating a particular food. So if
you notice you feel lethargic
half an hour after
eating, that’s
your body
saying it
would
prefer
something
else.
