7 Steps to Build A More Confident You in the Workplace | My Soho Times

Hands up who feels 100% confident, always, in every situation? I’m going to hazard a pretty safe guess that very few people would raise their hands. Even the most brazen will have moments of doubt, and for some of us, these moments are more like a constant stream of insecurities. And yet in the workplace, confidence is one of the best tools to help you progress in your career and provide you with high job satisfaction. It can be the difference between getting that promotion or being overlooked. You could literally be delivering the same quality of work in both scenarios, but in order to get that recognition, you often need to step out of your comfort zone and actively promote yourself.

New Opening: The “Cool” Danish Steakhouse, KÖD Soho | My Soho Times

Depending on your knowledge of the somewhat obscure pedestrian walkway seamlessly linking Dean Street and Wardour Street, you might recall a range of establishments that have occupied number 2 St Anne’s Court in Soho over the decades. One of the notable predecessors was the popular (Vodka) Revolution Bar, which shut its doors more than a decade ago. Following that, the ‘surf & turf’ restaurant Rex & Marino set up shop, offering a unique culinary experience for both pescatarian and carnivours alike. After a long period of closure post-lockdown, Zelman Meats closed down before Block Soho emerged as a new addition to the vibrant area two years ago. However, its presence was short-lived, as was the subsequent venture of Nanny Maroon, which promised Indigenous Jamaican cuisine but closed shortly after its launch event last year.
