Misogyny is deeply ingrained in Irish society.

Every woman lost is a life stolen. A mother, sister, daughter, or aunt, ripped from those who loved her.

We all have a role to play in our communities, sports clubs, workplaces, and politics, to tackle this scourge head on.

We are moving to new definitions of success for organisations & systems, says @indy_johar. It is less about prescribed “end-states” (targets & standards to be achieved) & more about creating the conditions for change - diverse people working well together, having a sense of agency, adapting quickly & creating shared futures.
He sets out key leadership shifts including:
1. Focusing on relationships, not just plans: Success comes from strong trust & communication between people & teams, making it easier to handle challenges & seize opportunities.
2. Treating goals as guides, not set-in-stone: Use goals to give direction but be ready to adjust them as circumstances change & new opportunities arise.
3. Strengthening the “agentic capacity” of diverse people: Enable people to sense, interpret, act & learn together across the system so coherence is built from the ground up—not imposed from above.
4. Pushing authority and accountability closer to where challenges & opportunities happen: So decisions can be made quickly & locally.
5. Measuring improvement in adaptability & collaboration: not just results: A healthy system is one that can handle diversity, make sense of new information & adjust quickly — not just one that delivers on a fixed plan.
6. Investing in trust & learning systems: Make time & space for teams to learn from what’s working & what’s not & share that knowledge openly.
7. Operating across different time horizons simultaneously: (i) current urgencies & institutional realities (e.g. targets, reporting cycles). (ii) transitional infrastructures for reflection & adaptation; (iii) long-term investments in trust, feedback & sensing new directions.
