Visited a sick relative @NHSBwD hospital yesterday. After 45 years in the NHS I was totally shocked by the number of patients bedded in public corridors. No dignity at all! Sort this out @NHSNW

@NHSCommsJoe Don’t do the follow up Joe. The NHS are one team and clinical staff couldn’t do their jobs without the support of other NHS professionals

[Helen Bevan @HelenBevan]

A new "virtual first" toolkit has been produced by @Dropbox. It's a set of tools & activities for people & teams to thrive in distributed working. They offer four toolkits:
1) Effectiveness kit
2) Teamwork kit
3) Communication kit
4) Wellbeing kit
There's some super content, useful for all leaders & teams, not just those working virtually: https://t.co/V0DkUR6sTU

[Helen Bevan @HelenBevan]

Psychological safety hierarchy of needs. There's a powerful premise. As leaders, we want our teams to do their best, most productive work. Yet our leadership behaviours - micro-managing, work dumping etc, can block this at a fundamental level. V @heidipsychology @Juliet_Young1

[Deborah Thompson @DTDeborah]

Can’t wait to see you all there @NHSElect @AcuteFrailty ❤️

@NHSCommsJoe @RobinD100 @SallyVaughan37 @SaddlerLeanne @GarethCorser @SarahwResearch @CathHeaney @CJadams80 @NHSElect Great stuff here. I agree with all of the tips. My personal tips are - try not to use notes. Use a mix of text and images to engage your audience and don’t worry about questions. None of us can know everything x
