Behind many organisational failures are groups of people who knew bad things were happening but felt unwilling or unable to express their concerns. New research shows how leaders can make constructive challenge not just possible but an integral part of a thriving organisational culture. Five actions for leaders:
1) Ask better questions - ones that directly invite disagreement
2) Acknowledge the legitimacy of the challenge
3) Keep meetings interactive & friendly
4) Allocate enough time for open discussion
5) Create a sense of accountability among team members

A fantastic free White Paper on "Facilitating Constructive Challenge" based on the research: https://t.co/otaXtuRO1Q. By @ProfCeliaMoore.

URGENT! Pls share. The last chance to register to vote in the General Election is 11.59pm tomorrow Tue 18 June. Potentially 8m aren't registered at their current address. Here's 4 key facts...

1) You can do it online here https://t.co/i4FhJoAXfK
2) It's good for your finances. Not being on electoral roll can make it more difficult to be accepted for credit products like bank accounts or mortgages.
3) You can opt out of the 'Open Register' (which allows your info to be sold on) which will stop you getting junk mail marketing )
4) You'll need ID when you do vote (not to register) if you don't have it, you can get it free until Wed 26 June https://t.co/9bfL3hw3CV

If we want to build learning organisations, we need a data-driven culture. Yet in a recent study across multiple industries, 6 in 10 leaders said they haven’t been able to establish a data-driven culture. It's mostly not to do with (technical) data systems. It's to do with people resisting changing the way they make decisions. Ways to build a data-driven culture:
1) engage influencers & leaders across the organisation, uncover their biggest priorities & brainstorm ideas
2) combine senior leadership role modelling with grassroots, user-driven initiatives
3) identify success metrics early & rally teams around them
