@10DowningStreet The larger question is whether the UK genuinely values its elderly population and those in need of care or is content to maintain a facade of concern through endless reviews and reports, all the while allowing vulnerable individuals to fall through the cracks.
Loneliness at work has become an epidemic, leading to workplace stress, people being absent & leaving their jobs. New research has highlighted multiple myths that lead to many leaders making the workplace loneliness situation worse. Myths:
1) Loneliness can be solved by coming back to the office
2) Teams will solve loneliness
3) Lonely people are needier socially than others at work
4) Loneliness is a personal problem, not an organisational problem.
Practical actions that leaders can take to reduce work loneliness include measuring loneliness, designing slack in workflows, creating a culture of connection, building socialising into the rhythm of work & maximising each work mode (remote or f2f) for connection.

"Efficiency" & "productivity": two terms that we often confuse. As a result, we may struggle to address the problems we face because they focus on different problems with different solutions.
High efficiency does not mean high productivity. We can create highly efficient processes, but if people arenβt motivated to do the work or following procedures, they wonβt produce results quickly.
High productivity does not mean high efficiency. We can have the most highly skilled & connected people, but if they are drowning in operational processes & red tape, they wonβt produce results quickly.
If we understand the different approaches they require, we can maximise both efficiency and productivity: https://t.co/9C1cBEJy7E. By Avi Siegal on @Medium.
