Kind leaders put their people at the centre of their organisations. Kindness has the power to bring people together, strengthening relationships, promoting connection and trust and inspiring positive change. One is never too important to be kind.

[✨Sonia Sparkles✨🖤 @Sonia_Sparkles]

Strive to be an authentic leader

It’s about being real, honest & being true to your values. Not about authority or pleasing your senior leaders

You are just you, are consistent and not playing a role

You make personal connections with others, lead from the heart & are honest

[Andy Hargreaves @HargreavesBC]

A good leader cares about who you are; a great leader cares about who you could become.

[Helen Bevan @HelenBevan]

The "Butterfly Effect" describes the impact small changes can have on a larger system as the impact ripples through the system. It's based on the idea that a butterfly can flap its wings & the cumulative ripple results in a tornado. The same can happen in organisations. Change starts with one person giving voice to a problem or new idea that (somehow) gains momentum. It's impossible to know in advance which influences will have the greatest impact, so we have to keep testing ideas to see which gain the most traction. What small changes can you make to disrupt the organisation dynamics that reinforce a problem you are facing? https://t.co/Un55jB2Puj By @WirthRoss

What is a system? "The interaction of relationships, interactions & resources in a defined context". What is systems thinking? "An approach to solving problems in complex systems that looks at the interconnectedness of things to achieve a particular goal". We need to build our capability in systems thinking to tackle so many of the big complex challenges of health & care. This is a super article that sets out "FENCED": six transformational principles for applying systems thinking in driving large scale change: https://t.co/CgfRbxA45L. Via @reospartners @juneholley

If serving is below you, leadership is beyond you.
You must be willing to place the needs of others above your own. As a leader, you must ensure that your teams are inspired every day to make a difference. That's what we call leadership, and that's what real leaders do.

[Dr Jill Berry @jillberry102]

.@AlmaHarris1: "Good leaders 'recognise their leadership is really limited without the connections & collaboration with others...I wish I’d said this, but I didn’t: isolation is the enemy of improvement'. She added that collaboration beyond one’s own immediate surroundings.." 1/2

Impactful #Distributed #Leadership supports every aspect of #Management of an organisation.

Investing time and support to allow formal and informal leaders to grow, will ensure your organisation will grow.

[Emma Clayton @Brilliant_Teams]

In meetings, it’s tempting to pay attention to the loud, confident voices. However, the deep thinkers who hold back often have the key to unlock your problem and move forward.
It’s not just a question of listening, it’s listening for the right things from the right people.

[Ignatius Dineen @IgnatiusDineen]

Love this, #leadership is a decision, not a job title!!
