Brent’s pep talk ‘winner’
WORKERS who want to climb the corporate ladder should take a leaf out of David Brent’s book.
Business gurus advise a few moments of “reflection” every morning to tell yourself how good you are.
US researchers found it is a winner for leaders and aspiring managers too.
Brent, from TV’S The Office, played by Ricky Gervais, often reflected on how good a boss he was.
Klodiana Lanaj, of the University of Florida, said: “Reflecting really makes a difference. This is a tool to be more effective at work.
“Just a few minutes can entirely change your focus for the rest of your day.”
