[Leadership Questions @LeaderQuestion]

What feedback mechanisms do we have in place? Are we paying attention to them? #leadership

[The Thought Lounge | Workplace Psychology @ThoughtLoungeHQ]

Urgency is the oldest manipulation tactic.
When you’re rushed, you’re emotional, not strategic.
Always pause before committing, urgency reveals intention.

[Julie Cooper @Julie_at_Spring]

This is such an important issue, and regularly overlooked. Often busy leaders feel they can’t spare the time but it’s critical for success. Schedule it in your diary as soon as you can, then ring fence it going forward.

[Leadership Questions @LeaderQuestion]

How well am I managing my mental game - have I set aside any time to think? #mindfulness #leadership

[Julie Cooper @Julie_at_Spring]

We know this but often don't like to admit it. Working from home is great for some, but not all. And of course loneliness at the top has long been an issue.

Anyone tried creative solutions?

[Harvard Business Review @HarvardBiz]

The research is clear. Loneliness is bad for everyone—individuals and companies. It’s on managers to foster a sense of belonging for their teams. https://t.co/xL8qp9icN0

I’ve been quiet around here because I damaged my voice box - it disappeared completely for 4 months and still isn’t strong. Tricky when you’re a trainer!

[Julie Cooper @Julie_at_Spring]

A lovely delegate bought me flowers in recognition of me attempting to train with little or no voice!

[Julie Cooper @Julie_at_Spring]

Trust in the workplace is different from trust among friends. What makes you trust - or break trust? It's an interesting discussion.

[Julie Cooper @Julie_at_Spring]

Many leaders struggle to delegate effectively but it’s so worth persevering

[Leadership Questions @LeaderQuestion]

Am I delegating appropriately or am I just #delegating the things I don't want to do?

[The HR Dept @HRDeptAUS]

This Monday, remember that employee experience is everything. HR Dept helps you build a positive, supportive company culture where your team feels valued and respected.

My pop up at The Crafter's Collective in Banbury finishes this month - they will post items to you if you get in touch with them.
There was a Canadian who wanted the big jug before it was finished - chances of them seeing this post are...??

Ordered Prima magazine from our village PO (because I’m in it!) and now they want to stock the book, so that’s nice 😁😁

[Milla Reed @milla_reed]

[Milla Reed @milla_reed]

Well this is random. A guy I haven't spoken to for years liked my my recent radio interview so he decided to animate it! So if you missed me talking about finding Mum's diaries, you can catch up :-)
