Approval of $61 billion of military aid for #Ukraine by 🇺🇸 is a highly significant moment. Along with more aid from 🇬🇧 & allies, it is a major boost for 🇺🇦's Armed Forces & sends a powerful message to Putin: the world continues to stand united in defence of freedom. @DefenceHQ

Mini rant: Every time an organisation says it's going to hire more diverse staff, someone replies "but surely you should hire the best candidates regardless of background!" And every time, what they think is a counterpoint is actually an argument *for* a diverse hiring policy.
Very good piece of writing. The brutal, utilitarian need to identify what actually matters. Then the confidence to actually focus on output and activity over appearance and process. Much to be learned here. @wavellroom wavellroom.com/2024/02/09/ris…
An absolutely fascinating read. Evidenced, nuanced, well written and with very well judged deductions. Sound warning of false economies too: automation will supplement and complement existing workforce, not replace or remove.

A wonderful Sovereign’s Parade yesterday @RMASandhurst. The chance to congratulate the 3 officers who commissioned into the @ArmyAirCorps at midnight & to meet the 4 who accepted their recent offers & will commission in Dec ‘23. Well done & good luck to all #FlyArmy #FlyFightLead
Congratulations to the four Officer Cadets who commission into the @ArmyAirCorps next month for completing their final tests on Exercise DYNAMIC VICTORY on Hohenfels Training Area in Germany.
Brilliant insights from an outstanding leader and human being. Particularly love the (Andrew Gordon?) dichotomy of ‘rat-catchers’ and ‘regulators’ 😂. Wise perspectives on D&I (Ukrainian Army efficacy) and MH / Wellbeing too.
