There is a strong relationship between debt and health. Our analysis highlights that 20% of people in problem debt report ‘bad’ or ‘very bad’ health, compared with 7% of those not in problem debt. Read more 🔽 health.org.uk/publications/l…

"culture isn’t just one aspect of the game—it is the game" So true! Thanks for sharing Helen
You can't change the culture of an organisation by making a rational plan for it, or by declaring it or by restructuring. The only way to change culture is to change the way people work with each other over time. Think many small changes: strategy-business.com/blog/W… Via @stratandbiz
Love this - so true for change processes too!

For transformational change, we don't need the most innovative, dynamic individuals; we need the best teams. Most job specs focus on task-driven skills, not collaboration skills. Time to rethink how we evaluate/recruit/manage/train talent greg-satell.medium.com/heres… By @Digitaltonto

Many leaders seeking transformational change think they need to communicate/persuade others. The reality is change is always built on common ground & you have to identify shared values to move things forward, even with your biggest critics: digitaltonto.com/2022/adopti… V @Digitaltonto

When the SPSO considers a complaint and finds there has been a problem, we most often recommend that the organisation offer an apology. See our guidance on what an apology is and what you need to do for an apology to be meaningful spso.org.uk/sites/spso/files… #apologies #SPSO
