I really like this new article on psychological safety (a belief that we can speak up, take risks & make mistakes without fear of being judged, humiliated or punished) at work. It sets out a series of activities/approaches that all of us can use to build psychological safety in our teams. These include: - Manual of Me - Team Charter - Lifelife - Activity from Google that ranks sources of anxiety - 5-word Fridays - Team temperature check uxdesign.cc/creating-psychol….

The challenges of becoming a less hierarchical organisation. Restructuring to reduce layers offers the promise of increased collaboration, agility, value & shifting decision making power to more people. However, research suggests that "how" (it's done) is more important than "what" (the design is): 1) Don't underestimate "zombie structures": it’s not enough to build anew; you must also actively dismantle & guard against the resurrection of the old 2) Expect an uneven pace of change: different teams have unique histories, cultures & operational nuances 3) Leadership during restructuring needs to be a razors edge: too much control can stifle the initiative that the redesign aims to foster; too little control can leave teams directionless 4) Adapt external ideas to the internal culture: external consultancies can give helpful advice but the people in the organisation know what is likely to work best hbr.org/2024/03/the-challeng….

Leadership roles are less about problems to be solved than about tensions/paradoxes/polarities to be managed. These are pairs of goals that may appear to be contradictory, but which are interdependent. An example would be the dual focus on delivering operationally in the short term AND transforming the system for the longer term. Both are needed to create positive results & achieve sustained high performance. A new report by @Deloitte sets out key polarities/paradoxes that senior leaders typically need to manage: deloitte.com/content/dam/Del…

"Building organisational culture from the middle out". Having a positive culture predicts high performance. People often think that it is senior leaders who should define/articulate/role model a healthy culture & mid level leaders who should enact/endorse it. However research newly published in @MITsmr shows the critical role mid level leaders play in developing/enriching the culture. It's through exchanges that support work teams to accomplish their tasks & the practice of daily behaviours, in line with values. It's great to see research that spotlights the contribution of middle managers: sloanreview.mit.edu/article/…. I teamed this article with a graphic by @GapingvoidArt
