In the NHS most employees connect with their leaders on a day to day basis via email NOT in person

f2f communication skills are of course v impt

but, email communication is a skill in itself which people seem to be REALLY REALLY bad at

maybe there should be some training?

What contributes to an #innovative mindset?

For me, I need to be alert and wake, & know that it’s ok to be wrong!

This is the focus of our next HPMA Future Leaders module.

Looking forward to welcoming Thomas Simons CCIPD & Clever Together💙

To explore this subject.

We’re onto 4th week of husband with broken leg! He’s bored, fed up and got too much time on his hands! When I’ve dragged him out, he makes friends with random people, also on crutches!

He’s an avid 📖 reader. Loves a John Grisham novel or a legal thriller. Any recommendations?

Just seen that Michael West is 99p on Amazon.co.uk

Logged in to buy it on Audible UK 🎧 and I’m not eligible and will be charged £7.99

Lovely way to treat existing customers!

We are the epitome of “muddling” through with childcare and try very hard not to use a screen to babysit! ❤️

We’ve never had parents to rely on, and that’s one of the reasons why neither of us have “proper jobs”.

At our trust you can bank contractual leave (you have to take your statutory leave) in a lifetime allowance to save it up for a big holiday/ it’s paid when you leave and you can buy/ sell annual leave. Not sure if this is revolutionary but maybe it is!

Work is based on trust. It’s so very important and possibly the best thing about being a #freelancer

If you don’t feel that there’s trust, you can move on to the next client and not look back.

Totally love this! ❤️😍❤️

Where’s good for charity shop shopping, and are they open on Sundays? Have had a request from daughter, that this is what she would like to do on her birthday! Am thinking #RoyalTunbridgeWells or #Brighton

Looking forward to talking about this later today. What is the best feedback you have had and what made it so helpful?

One thing that makes good days very productive, is for me to spend the first 10 minutes of my day noting down the things I need to do, literally before I open my eyes properly.

I couldn’t be part of the #5amclub that’s a step too far!

What tips do you have?

Don’t you love it when you’re focused at work, and your #fitbit decides you're asleep, for 4 hours!

As I prepare to move on from the Nuffield Trust next week I've been thinking about some of the things I have found myself saying repeatedly over the last 7 years. A thread... (1/10)

When you’re connecting CIPD HPMA
competencies to core modules as well as heating up shreddies for the 7 yo, and telling him why the spoon can’t go in the microwave, and learning French words and trying to get him upstairs to get dressed!

Anyone have a toxicology job they’d take me to shadow for a day on?? (Medical or lab tech!)

How to improve a meeting (when you’re not in charge). A recent article from Amy Edmondson. The tactics you use depends on the level of psychological safety:
1) The helpful workaround: works when psychological safety is low (on the team or with the person leading the meeting).

One of the best ways to address bullying is to confront the person and the behaviour. However, often we feel inferior and weaker to those who bully us, stepping up for ourselves can be difficult, but is crucial for #BehaviourSafety

The best leaders are not at all competitive. They aren’t constantly trying to outdo their peers [even behind their backs], stamp their higher authority on their team or demonstrate their superiority. There is no need. The team & the collective achievement of outcomes is their job

I kind of took the day off today! Lay in - until 7:15!!!

No meetings! Did a couple of work bits (that i wanted to do). Had lunch together to celebrate our anniversary and then went for a swim and sorted the kids together!

Sometimes it’s the small things! ❤️
