It's very moving to see my friends sharing how hard things have been at @theRSAorg. I too left after 4 yrs and share so many of the feelings they put into words here... I tried to communicate them as much as possible to find a way to build peace because actually, I loved the RSA.
Supporting my courageous former colleagues today #rsaunion

Shocked the #FRSA email update says “After a year of staff change to accompany our change of strategy” - that’s staff being treated appallingly in the hope they’ll quit then. RSA colleagues were fantastic, highly talented & principled people This is not regenerative. @theRSAorg
Solidarity with my former colleagues who haven't been given a space to discuss, collaborate and improve the workplace. It's very sad and unjust...and such a contradiction to the values of so many of the changemakers that shape the organisation.
📢 HUGE NEWS! 📢
Staff at the RSA have voted OVERWHELMINGLY for the first strike action in the organisation’s history.
With a 79% turnout and a 93% vote in favour, we'll be on strike on Tuesday 19th and Thursday 21st of September.

Excited to share this work, one of my last @theRSAorg projects (it's my last week this week, eek!)
