Great leadership development creates transformation and lasting impact. The real power of facilitation lies in holding space rather than filling it, asking questions that spark reflection, modelling authenticity and courage, linking skills to purpose, and turning events into journeys. When done well, facilitation becomes less about slides and more about creating the soil where leaders grow. #facilitation #leadership #development

The old rules of the boardroom aren’t keeping up with today’s world. Today’s boardroom must oversee not just financial health, but a broader set of metrics that reflect the organisation’s overall health. In 100% Human at Work’s new paper, "Rewriting the Rules of the Boardroom", I share my thoughts on how Boards can make a radical difference in how businesses think, lead and act, with a human centred approach.  From shifting power and creating safe spaces to measuring what really matters, the paper, in collaboration with Virgin Unite, offers six ways to make Boards more human, relevant and resilient.    If you’re curious about shaping a better future for business, I’d encourage you to read the full paper here: https://lnkd.in/e6s7jmRK

It’s great to be quoted in Forbes again, this time not only to share my thoughts on the rise of senior leaders being held accountable for misconduct, but also to highlight our latest LRN Code of Conduct report. It’s clear that organizations are strengthening their codes of conduct, but the real test will be in the application. The swift action taken by a company like Nestle sends a powerful message that the rules apply to everyone, "if you are the CEO or the mailroom clerk” it makes no difference, but this is about more than just avoiding headlines. It’s about building a genuine culture of integrity, backed by meaningful training that goes beyond a simple check-box exercise. https://lnkd.in/eWmrKbZr #CorporateCulture #Leadership #Ethics #Accountability #CorporateGovernance
