For many years organisations have defined their values & struggling to meet them. This interesting article analyses & discusses that challenge. It also raises several questions for the PPM & change community.

Insightful & very open article. The "weaknesses" described are very common. But why struggle through on your own? Seek out mentors and a great coach to help accelerate your development.

This makes sense...little value is ever gained by just buying the tools. Need people to understand how, where to implement and to use appropriately.

Roads & home improvements are ok, but a 21st century version of “Build Build Build” is vital! U.K. Govt shld start big tech & change projects within govt departments/NHS/5G before we lose the world class tech & project delivery skills our #contractor workforce has! #ExcludedUK

#Hiring Tip: when recruiters post a 20 word ad with a nice day rate asking you to send your CV. Ask them to "qualify" the role: who is the client, what is the client business, industry, location, sector, size, etc.

“Betrayed, devastated, desperate, soul-destroying, isolated, abandoned, disgusted, let down, left behind, angry, discrimination, broken, excluded” - the collective voice of 3 million #excludedUK taxpayers left out of support schemes.

How has our country been allowed to get to the point where this is happening?

Three million livelihoods ignored, cast aside, by a Government who over THREE MONTHS ago promised to not leave ANYONE behind.

Despite propaganda, its actually 10% of the working population #excludeduk
