We all need a little help sometimes

We have witnessed an explosion in the ‘self-help’ industry over the past 10 years. Is it cynical to call it an ‘industry’? We don’t think so. It’s a big business (projected to be worth USD 13.2b by 2022) and some of its gurus have become minor celebrities on the way.


In the conference world, we often seek inspiration, new ideas and new concepts. Sound bites from self-help gurus, thinkers, authors and therapists can sometimes be the spark you need. Social media has absolutely changed the game here, so whatever your preferred medium, you will likely be able to get daily doses of this inspiration.


Here are the links to the home pages some of our *favourites but you can always follow them on Instagram, Twitter or Facebook if you’re not a fan of newsletters.
