There's a big difference between "speaking up" & "calling out". This is so relevant in the context of building psychological safety & addressing issues & concerns within teams. ‘Speak up’ cultures enable people to get under the surface of issues; to feel & be heard. ‘Call out’ cultures shut down open & honest communication, breeding fear & discontent. When things go wrong, there's often a knee jerk reaction towards fault finding. Stepping back from this & instead focusing on finding solutions supports growth & development of people & systems. linkedin.com/feed/update/urn…. By @drbrockbastian. Graphic: Mays W. on LinkedIn.

I am so proud of all my colleagues from all backgrounds, all countries and all faiths who work day in day out to run our NHS. We stand united against Fascism! Hope not hate 💙 RT if you agree.

So grateful to join the 2nd PNA symposium today. So many wonderful nurses @NHSBT supporting each other to support our patients, donors and families. Proud Chief Nurse ❤️ Thank you @LauraOPNA @nhsbtnursing @NursingEmma – at Merton, London
Such a wonderful day and so well organised @LauraOPNA . It was great to be joined by @NursingEmma @DThiruchelvam and @AimeeHilton2 who all ran fantastic sessions. A real cup filler of a day and I have left feeling so inspired about all the #PNA role can achieve to support nurses.

A fantastic day today with our @nhsbtnursing council and Chief Nursing Officer @DThiruchelvam. Taking the first step in engaging with our nurses to inform the nursing strategy refresh. So inspiring to be in a room full of so many ideas and so much passion for our profession.

So what started as a kind offer of support turned into an overwhelming response, resulting in this - today I hosted the 1st PNA Strategy Planning Meeting attended by 29 professionals! The community spirit we have is incredible #1team #professionalnurseadvocates @CPFT_NHS
