What next? Changing the frequency of elections? Giving himself the ability to pass laws without them going through proper parliamentary process?
NEW: Boris Johnson has watered down the ministerial code - allowing ministers to break the rules without resigning - and blocked a bid to give his ethics advisor the power to investigate him…

The past two years of compounding emotional strain have made it increasingly clear that managers need to shift their focus to meeting & supporting employees’ emotional well-being. Learn strategies to be more supportive in my latest article for @HarvardBiz

Great to see that the SheffTechLeadership meetup is making a comeback!
As a first step, this first event will be a brainstorm session to understand what challenges people are facing in the leadership area, what to cover on the meetup and how to run it.

Q2: the challenges of reflective practice - getting stuck in a negative space. Our natural negativity bias can steer us down a path of negative self talk.

In our rapidly-changing world, changing our existing thought patterns may be especially useful.
Interesting to read in the CIPD resource that 'reorganising existing knowledge – sometimes referred
to as unlearning – is an essential component of the process.'

A2 Today's world is super complex and in the #tech teams I work with solutions shift & change all the time. Without feedback & open working the ability to solve problems & move forward shrinks everyday

Normal remote work is 100X better than pandemic remote work
Once people have that, the above numbers skyrocket even more

A3 Think systemically
What does your org reward - lone wolves, tech bros, alpha behaviour?
How does progression work? Does it always involve people management? Do you promote the best doers into managers?
How do you support the step into management?

A2: for this to happen we also need orgs to value and reward people skills as much as tech skills.
Give top rewards to those with great empathy as well as those with great coding skills.

We were joined by the wonderful @AmandaCookson to discuss and better understand the imposter syndrome (which isn't actually a syndrome).
Amanda provided us with plenty of useful, practical advice as to how people can overcome imposter feelings.
