A highlight of my month is getting to co-work with colleagues at @Thrive_WW. I love it because we laugh and we eat! The purpose of this time is connection.

"Busyness is the moral equivalent of laziness... it involves refusing to live with courage and intentionality." Dan B Allender

My word for 2024 is "intentionality" and wow this convicted me, and will serve as a good reminder for the year ahead. How do you respond to this quote?

When a civil war erupted in Ethiopia's Tigray region, @ZOA_nl's local team bravely supported those in need. But they too were victims of the conflict. Here's how we supported them during this challenging time. https://t.co/wlgYWZj5bs

"Every organisation has its own culture. But whether it’s emerged organically, or been developed strategically, there’s often a difference between the culture you *want* and the one you *have*."

The best way to open people's minds isn't to argue with them. It's to listen to them.

When people feel understood, they become less defensive and more reflective—and develop less extreme, more nuanced views.

Productive disagreements begin with curiosity, not persuasion.

To support any staff impacted by the Gaza / Israel conflict can feel fraught with complexity.

To do it well, leaders & HR need to first understand how stress and trauma can impact an individual & a team.

One of the best parts of my job is spending time with my colleagues. My colleague Teddy is back from nearly 3 months in Ethiopia. I’m so inspired by the care & support he has provided to humanitarians & the transformation he has witnesssed in their health and wellbeing.

Working from home is wonderful, but sometimes I choose to work from coffee shops & other spaces. It helps me to step out of my daily routine & provides fresh insights / perspectives. Today this space boosted my #creativity. And I got to enjoy a delicious Shakshuka 😋 #Nairobi
