How resilience workshops can undermine psychological safety...
Giving fatigued or burnt out staff resilience workshops is like trying to teach a drowning person how to swim and expecting it to work - and for them to be grateful.
Let me explain...
How can you say a *good* goodbye in redundancy?
A fast exit feels like a statement about how little they matter to the organisation. It's unsettling - and not just to the person leaving, but to the team that remains. Because if that person doesn't matter in this very vulnerable moment, then what does that mean for them?
Here's how you can inject some psychological safety thinking into your approach to do exits a little differently...
How leaders can build trust - and why they should...
Can you imagine being in a serious relationship where there is ZERO trust? No. Nor can I. And yet every day millions of people are turning up to work in jobs where they don't trust their leaders, or their team members.
Why does that matter to you as a leader? Because as a leader, you're working in partnership - with the team you're a part of (your peers) and with the team you lead (your direct reports). The relationships you have with BOTH teams are critical to your success as a leader.
