Even in a mediocre town you can find some parkland and landscaped gardens. Aim to walk, cycle (or run!) at least a small section of your journey. It&#8217;s actually walk to work day today so what better excuse! If you can\u2019t get up early in the morning, enjoy the journey home instead. If you work from home, you can still pop out for a brief walk and wake your brain up ready for a productive day.<\/li>\n<li>Most people feel more alert in the summer months as the brain reacts to more daylight and helps you shake off the winter blues. Use this extra energy to catch up on tasks that you\u2019ve been putting off, creating a virtuous cycle and inspiring yourself for greater creativity.<\/li>\n<li>Dress for the changing season. But make sure you\u2019re aware of all aspects of your company\u2019s dress code as you discard the heavy business suits and polo necks. Sort out your wardrobe and select lighter, breathable fabrics, while retaining the level of formality required by your employer. Don\u2019t get carried away and start showing off your body art unless you\u2019re sure that it\u2019s allowed &#8211; many bosses still frown upon it. And UK law doesn\u2019t give you the automatic right to get inked, unless it\u2019s part of your religious dress code.<\/li>\n<li>Plan now for the hot summer days that are looming ahead &#8211; even in the UK we are sure to get a few. So, check that the air conditioning units and <a href=\"\/Search?q=fan&amp;category-ids=1890-8185\">desk fans<\/a> are working to keep everyone in the office comfortable. Try to anticipate and negotiate around potential flashpoints over how high the temperature should be.<\/li>\n<li>Spring and summer is a great time to consolidate your office friendships. In the better weather, people are generally more relaxed both inside and outside the office, so organise drinks with workmates you\u2019d like to get to know better.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Our winter has been long and hard in the UK &#8211; but now it\u2019s time to celebrate spring!
