I had a conversation today about the difference between "kindness" & "niceness" in leadership so I decided to post about it. The article & graphic explain why, as leaders, we should choose kindness over niceness. Kindness is about caring enough to push people toward greatness, even when it’s uncomfortable. It’s a harder path but better in the long run:

New rule to help recognise burnout:
Stop saying & accepting “I am fine” articulate it another way (it’s ok to say “I am not fine but I don’t want to talk about it)

New illustration:
There are so many benefits to including people with lived experience in improvement work
We need to put the effort, time and support into making it a reality for all projects – not just some projects on the outskirts of healthcare

We are all too busy
Time is flying by
We have no time to do things
The only way to make time for things that matter is …to STOP doing things that don’t matter

#CJSansom so sad to hear he has died. I never thought I was interested in Tudor history until I read Dissolution then I was hooked. A great writer and storyteller
