Truth about Local Government’s Post

Are peers an overlooked resource? In our study Harvard University, we found that students and researchers were able to provide effective listening to their peers in fields ranging from Business and Law to Education, Medicine and Design. Participants learned to develop their natural ability to listen attentively, and provided support to their peers that was assessed as highly valuable--including greater clarity, coping with challenges, and developing interpersonal skills.

A different approach to policymaking is urgently required to address the chronic problems, complex crises and emerging challenges facing the UK. 2.
