Love this! Finding the right way to challenge others is key!

@HelenBevan Love this! Finding the right way to challenge others is key!

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 Summary article: sloanreview.mit.edu/article/five-w…. From @mitsmr. A fantastic free White Paper on "Facilitating Constructive Challenge" based on the research: imperialcollegelondon.app.box.com/s/7ykk79b6sz4s…. By @ProfCeliaMoore.

@gilltavner Done! Don't see you on Bluesky yet. There's a strong community of those with an interest in climate.

@_buames Thank you for your bravery and wise words and I LOVE that we exist together too.

I’m entering hospice today. Will probably update every little if at all. But I wanted to say to be kind, be brave, be principled, be an idealist. Most importantly, be a decent human. I love that we existed together, in this moment of time.
