Earlier this week, I posted about the critical leadership role of building belonging at work. Several people asked me about how we measure belonging. So I wanted to highlight this study from @Coqual_ , USA. Using a ten point scale, based on four elements, they showed: 1) people who feel a strong sense of belonging are less likely to leave 2) race and gender make a significant difference to how much people feel a sense of belonging 3) people born in another country have some of the lowest belonging scores at work 4) extroverts have higher belonging scores than introverts 5) senior leaders have the highest belonging scores talentinnovation.org/_private/asset…

Orthoptists … How conversations with our patients can help in so many ways @BIOS_Orthoptics @HindleLinda @CraigmuzzMurray

New video from @cvisim. We all know the 'one child in every class' with #CVI statistic. This video was created to show that 'form' of CVI, in consultation with affected individuals. Wow! Shows clearly why 80% have difficulties in school. vimeo.com/899052936

The last video is from Sue: think BIGGER than the #AHP world & sieze the opportunities 🌟 That's the end of all our #AHPs #Togetherness videos. Hope you manage a rest somehow over the festive period & thank you for everything you do 🙏🏽💝 #StrongerTogether #AHPsDeliver

A seasonal concept for improvement: the Christmas tree effect. This is where we keep adding new features as part of our improvement approach (like ornaments on a tree). We can end up hurting the overall system, even if each individual new feature is a positive. We humans are hardwired to add things to solve problems. We often overlook better solutions that involve taking things away. We need to give subtraction a more central role in our improvement efforts says @DavidEpstein: davidepstein.substack.com/p/the-christma…. Via @FerraroRoberto

@MarshadeCordova @TPTgeneral @RNIB @MacularSociety @RCOphth @The_AOP @fightforsightUK @CraigmuzzMurray It would be great to know whether Orthoptists had the opportunity to support this strategy.

Tackling the growing demand for eye health services is one of the biggest challenges facing the NHS in England today. The govt must take action now. Read about how my National Eye Health Strategy for England can be part of the solution to this crisis. tinyurl.com/4bm9mdka

#Equality, #Diversity and #Inclusion (EDI) is important to be aware of, even when it can seem overwhelming or challenging. The culture you create must seamlessly weave in #EDI where possible, so that it works for everyone. ow.ly/2BGX50NWW16 #RaceEqualityMatters
