As leaders of change, how we think is as important as what we do. A key aspect of this is having a growth mindset (rather than a fixed mindset). This means that we: - believe the people in our teams are imaginative & innovative & everyone has the ability to learn & grow - see challenges & setbacks as opportunities for learning & improvement -ourselves as adaptable & open to new ideas, which is vital for guiding people through change. - are inspired by the success of others - are focused on the process of learning & improvement, not just outcomes @MrChrisJWilson has produced a beautiful set of graphics on having a growth mindset. Here are four of them.

Donation is just the first step in the journey of blood! There’s a whole load of amazing science that takes place in the lab, allowing your donations to be used for transfusions and to treat patients. 🔬 Watch this short behind the scenes video about some of the processes.

Loneliness at work has become an epidemic, leading to workplace stress, people being absent & leaving their jobs. New research has highlighted multiple myths that lead to many leaders making the workplace loneliness situation worse. Myths: 1) Loneliness can be solved by coming back to the office 2) Teams will solve loneliness 3) Lonely people are needier socially than others at work 4) Loneliness is a personal problem, not an organisational problem. Practical actions that leaders can take to reduce work loneliness include measuring loneliness, designing slack in workflows, creating a culture of connection, building socialising into the rhythm of work & maximising each work mode (remote or f2f) for connection. hbr.org/2024/11/were-s….

Even after the birth of my third daughter, I still have so much to say about amplifying Black mothers' voices in spaces where we're seldom heard. Joining the 'Women as mothers' panel at the Women in Medicine Conference with Prof Dame Lesley Regan DBE (the government's first ever Women's Health Ambassador for England ), @White_Suz (Head of Clinical Negligence, Leigh Day), and Sam Allen (Chair, NHS England Maternity & Neonatal Board). I’ll be bringing insights from @MotherhoodGroup latest commissioned reports and engagement. Let's reshape maternal healthcare narratives together. #BlackMaternalHealth #WomenInMedicine
