On the first anniversary of Russia’s illegal and unprovoked invasion of Ukraine, the UK and its allies remain steadfast in their support for Ukraine. There is no loss of momentum from the UK and its allies in 2023. #StandWithUkraine πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡¦

Today’s anniversary is defined not by Russia’s brutality. It is defined by the heroism of Ukraine. Here’s my letter to my Ukrainian counterpart, General Zaluzhnyi, on behalf of the British Armed Forces. #StandWithUkraine πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡¦

#Empathy & #compassion are vital skills for all leaders, and key to β€˜knowing your people’ - a core element of the Army #Leadership Framework. It requires a personal understanding of the emotions & feelings of others, combined with a genuine willingness to improve the situation.

Is emotional intelligence the single most important skill of being an effective leader? Arguably you cannot lead effectively without it. So does the art of leadership begin a little closer to home? #leadership #team #culture #leaders #leader #emotionalintelligence #empathy
