When people describe the best teams they ever worked in, they typically describe teams that are socially cohesive. Socially cohesive teams have a high degree of connectivity & solidarity, belongingness & emotional support. This "social tissue" creates the conditions for high performance. Here is some excellent practical advice on how to build social cohesion in teams:
1) Create a compelling team identity
2) Establish shared norms & values
3) Promote shared experiences & team rituals

We have started to roll out the Reasonable Adjustments Digital flag across the NHS and publicly funded care

Watch this film https://t.co/V5jvXisDEZ about what reasonable adjustments are that people with a learning disability and autistic people might need.

It’s taken me a few days to process all of the things I learned on the @kingsfund_lib leadership development days @FNightingaleF - impossible to get it all down into one tweet (is it still a tweet?) so naturally I made a montage!

[Helen Bevan @HelenBevan]

As the work we do as leaders becomes more complex & system-focussed, we need to shift our leadership development approaches:
FROM growing the skills of individual leaders
TO developing system leaders for people-focused collective improvement.
The Collaborative Leadership Canvas can helps us turn traditional leadership on its head, redefining it as a shared process: https://t.co/W14rkTtvng. This link includes access to a free guide & assessment process. Via @juneholley @SocialChangeAg

Psychological safety: how to get members of our teams to actually speak up.
It's a common leadership misconception that just by encouraging team members to voice opinions we create a culture of openness. We need to address the issues (individual & systemic) that prevent people from speaking up. Five actions:
1) Express intent (but only ask for the level of candour you’re ready & able to receive)
2) Use standard questions like "what are the pros & cons of this idea?" ("What do you think?” can feel like a trap)
3) Discuss communication preferences & use the mediums that play to their preferences rather than yours
4) Lend social capital to people who are in the minority in your organisation (& less likely to speak up) - disrupt biases by giving them the floor
5) Attribute credit fairly to the people who did the work
