Spa treatments are a luxury that not all travelers are keen on experiencing especially when visiting a new destination. The usual itinerary will comprise of tours, some shopping and food adventures.

It is also a means of exploring and discovering other cultures reflected through traditional therapy, use of local ingredients and unique settings for relaxation. Of course, it always helps to nourish mind, body and soul whether it is upon landing or just before taking off to return to reality. Whichever the case, these destination spas are worth adding to the bucket list of a quintessential spa-holic.

Founder and CEO of Acceleration Partners Bob Glazer writes: "It takes great leaders and talent to grow a successful company. One of the best descriptions of a leader I've heard is that leaders focus on vision and strategy, guiding and removing obstacles for their teams — something like a coach in sports.
Managers typically focus more on the execution piece, working in the business. By contrast, real leadership means providing a compelling vision and clear direction. Successful leaders clarify priorities and expectations, defining employee roles and ensuring that the processes and capacity required for them to execute are in place."

A recent review of 195 studies shows that how students engage with feedback is just as important as how it's delivered. Lead author Dr. Naomi Winstone says that as a result of the heavy focus on giving high-quality feedback, the issues surrounding how learners understand and use feedback have been relatively neglected in research. "If we want feedback to have maximum impact on learners' development, then how learners engage with and implement feedback is just as crucial as the quality and timing of the feedback itself," she says. "No matter how high quality the feedback teachers provide, it will never have high impact unless we support learners to become 'proactive recipients' of feedback."
