We bring you a collection of our best tips for even better RTW in 2012.
Return to Work Matters Summer reading package 2011/2012

Let’s get one thing straight: we at RTW Matters are the first to say you deserve a break over the New Year period! Frankly, it would be hypocritical of us to gloss over the importance of taking a well-earned break, or the dangers of job burnout.

We should all practice feeling good about taking a proper step-back from work for a moment, to reconnect with family, friends and life beyond. (And if at first you don’t succeed, try, try again.) But because the RTW community is a uniquely passionate and dedicated one, we know you are probably already on the lookout for ways to improve your RTW systems and outcomes for the year ahead. And what’s the best way to do that? Planning.

We’ve put together a collection of essential summer reading resources to help reinspire and refocus your RTW efforts in 2012.
