This is utterly repulsive! Trump and Vance just tried to humiliate Zelensky live on American TV, smugly demanding gratitude while openly mocking him like playground bullies counting favors. My respect for Zelensky—and my embarrassment as an American—just surged off the charts. I’m beyond disgusted!”

Psychological safety: how to get members of our teams to actually speak up. It's a common leadership misconception that just by encouraging team members to voice opinions we create a culture of openness. We need to address the issues (individual & systemic) that prevent people from speaking up. Five actions: 1) Express intent (but only ask for the level of candour you’re ready & able to receive) 2) Use standard questions like "what are the pros & cons of this idea?" ("What do you think?” can feel like a trap) 3) Discuss communication preferences & use the mediums that play to their preferences rather than yours 4) Lend social capital to people who are in the minority in your organisation (& less likely to speak up) - disrupt biases by giving them the floor 5) Attribute credit fairly to the people who did the work hbr.org/2024/06/how-to….

🚨 BREAKING: @GSTTnhs has just declared a critical incident due to a major IT failure according to alerts sent to staff this afternoon:

@GaryMcAllister @BHaarbrandt @LondonUCP @openEHR You should definitely be linking in with @DrTonyYoung & @NHS_CEP (if not already!) lots of innovation going on and your insight would be useful to hear. Especially for early strategic plans around product development as a lot of digital health ideas coming through each cohort

The @LondonUCP is now in the NHS App - the first patient accessible @openEHR platform in the NHS. We need to scale this approach - clinician led informatics. Safer, Better healthcare for all. The team are amazing.
