"Bohemian Trumpsody" from @marshsongs may just be the best thing I've seen all day. Not only are the lyrics spot on, but man they can saaaaaaang!

‘Mumpsimus’, 16th century: one who insists that they are right (or wronged) when all evidence points to the contrary.

This happened a year ago today! Thanks so much to the fabulous ⁦@sarajcox⁩ and ⁦@BBCRadio2⁩ for taking a chance on an independent, unknown artist by playing my song, All Wrapped Up. It would be lovely to hear it again but I know it’s so tough to get on the playlist x

Research by @CCLdotORG found teams with high degrees of psychological safety reported higher levels of performance & lower levels of interpersonal conflict. They also found that senior leadership teams reported the greatest differences in their perceived levels of psychological safety: it means that senior teams are the place where creative problem solving is most likely to be squashed & teams fail to collaborate & innovate together to their full potential. They suggest 8 steps for leaders to help create a more psychologically safe workplace: 1. Make psychological safety an explicit priority 2. Facilitate everyone speaking up 3. Establish norms for how failure is handled 4. Create space for new ideas (even wild ones) 5. Embrace productive conflict 6. Pay close attention and look for patterns 7. Make an intentional effort to promote dialogue 8. Celebrate wins ccl.org/articles/leading-eff…

I hope the Alzheimer’s Society are paying attention to this. How an advert can be done. The importance of reminiscence, life story, relationships and environment and how they can positively impact on a person living with dementia. Shed more than a few tears……
