50% of people taking part in remote meetings multitask during the meetings (and we are doing more of it). Here is an excellent research-based article from @asana to remind us why we should try not to multitask. It's bad for our productivity & our mental health. It creates…

How can we build a culture of learning at scale? There's an increasing focus on ‘learning networks’ (as well as, or instead of, learning within organisations). It's built on a sense we need to support learning to occur across scales & boundaries - from the individual to…

There's lots of guidance for leaders on "listening with empathy". This research-based article says much of it (based on the idea of "walking in others shoes") is problematic. "Walking in shoes" gives us a clear picture of how we would feel if we were the other person but not how…

I'm at #Quality2024 live, listening to @AmyCEdmondson talking about principles from her book “The Right Kind of Wrong – The Science of Failing Well”. Amy differentiates three kinds of failures in organisations: 1) Basic failures: caused by carelessness or ignorance 2) Complex…

I'm engaging in outstanding discussions with leaders of change in health & care from across the globe at #Quality2024. A big theme is how relationships & relatedness are increasingly becoming the primary focus of change methodologies. Read this blog from @NENC_NHS on how a theory…
