If you are a leader in healthcare, should this not be our aim, for patients, communities and for the people working in the organisation? #patientsafety #staffwellbeing

We are not sure if Don said this first but whoever said it, it’s true. If you look around and the system is behaving as it always has, don’t be surprised when things don’t change.

As leaders please genuinely ask yourselves how many of these you’re really living and not just paying lip service to. Then take action that is authentic. The little decisions you make will be the ones that drive lasting change.

In praise of "worker bees" in organisations & in nature. They keep the system going. Hierarchical structures often fail to recognise the impact of small-scale contributors. We need to acknowledge that “smaller” players are critical to the health & resilience of larger

Definitely have a lot of experience of hearing this when people are tackling difficult issues. If you’re going to make difficult decisions and/or just tow the party line at least have the courage to own it or give somebody a plausible why!

I was supposed to start the top managers programme The King's Fund today. Had a bursary from Simon and his wonderful team Walter Cooper and the place secured and life had other plans. #silverlinings #kindnessmatters #bestlaidplans

I read heartbreaking tweets like this repost Anna C 💙🇺🇦 and articles about the experience of NHS staff nursingtimes.net/news/nurse-wel… and wonder if the system that needs fixing is right down to the interpersonal relationships between all of us. Human to human #KindnessMatters

We spent 4 years as team @enhtqi and I can honestly say I learned more about systems, improvement, leadership and what really matters in those 4 years than I did in any other role in 25 years in the NHS. It’s so long from us and me for now as I explore new beginnings ❤️
