Over the years, I've learnt that the best, highest performing teams are those where everyone feels a sense of belonging & appreciation for the unique & different things they bring to the team. So I'm happy to post this blog & sketchnote on "things boldly inclusive leaders do". They build an inclusive culture through foundations of continuous learning, active listening, authentic communication & creating a psychologically safe environment for people to thrive: https://t.co/SmBQXNjC2w. Thank you @minettenorman for the principles & @tnvora for your powerful interpretation.

'Rehabilitation could and should be the backbone of the NHS....

'These services have been undervalued and under-funded for years, which has created more dependence on emergency services and on social care, which is now on its knees.'

'Rehabilitation services have been seen as the 'nice to have, the icing on top of the cake'.

I fiercely believe that rehab is the icing in the middle of the cake, it cements everything together.'
