''Today I am so busy......that I simply have to go for a walk.'

I said this to myself this morning.

How do you create the space to make wiser choices?

Indeed, what will you do today that allows you to pause and to choose?

'There is a largely unquestioned belief in the importance of speed, even if that speed has many of the qualities of the fridge magnet that reads 'drink coffee - and do more stupid things faster'

Think back to the last time you were challenged and think 'how did you respond?' Megan Reitz at the #SpeakUpScot23 Conference

Great intro to Amy Edmondson's new book.

The big idea: why we need to learn to fail better theguardian.com/books/2023/aug…

it's so important to reflect on failures. Few people do, because it's painful.

My new book can help u with that.

I just found this in my daughter's things. Not sure when she did it.

LOVE IT.

I wonder whether more of our organisations need to list 'cheese' as a value?

Might make people sit up a little more and take notice instead of the usual list that nobody can ever remember.... 😂

And a loud & clear shout out to my co-authors & co-researchers John Higgins and Michael Chaskalson as well as the research team and colleagues at Hult International Business School & Hult EF Corporate Education who made our research over the last decade on Speaking Truth to Power and Mindful Leading possible 😊
