And while she was inspired by the article on finding the courage to just start, like a lot of people, she found that although there was a desire to get on with bringing her ideas to life, there was no obvious starting point.

Roshan Thiran from Leaderonomics shares five ways that can help you to get started on making an effective change (timely as we start the new year).
