Latest in leadership: July Summary

Grab a coffee, tea or cold drink and settle in for a read, it’s the July edition of LIW’s leadership summary and it’s packed with great content.

The Leadership Summary

The conversation flowed so well in?last month’s leadership?chat that we asked Andy and Juliet to do it again. They picked three articles from the?leadership long list?and?delved?beneath the headlines to explain the ‘so what?’.

The result is a twenty-minute conversation of pure gold. From HR practitioners being encouraged to put their?scientist's?goggles on and adopt an experimental mindset, to the power of?strong personal connections?and?small changes?in addressing stress, driving culture change and team performance. Dive in and listen, you won’t be disappointed.

Hybrid working: are you asking the right question?

There’s one subject still dominating conversations - hybrid working. We’re dedicating our August blog to the subject, and it’ll include an audio chat from?Andy and Jennie, because we know that listening to a conversation can shine light on complex situations in a way that just reading about it might not.

In 2020 we all flipped to remote working because we had to. Flexible working strategies that had been bubbling under for years were made reality overnight and companies did what they needed to do to keep delivering. But here we are, a couple of years on and we seem to have dug ourselves into a bit of a hole. As the world finds its new normal, the question of where people work is still unresolved. And somehow, despite everything we’ve learned since 2020, it seems to have come down to a binary choice – home or office???

And that’s causing tension between individuals, teams and organisations, because I suspect we all know it isn’t that straightforward. Employees and organisations are confused, and we don’t believe the answer is to roll out a singular ’apply to all’ policy. We believe that the answer lies with your team, being honest and asking the right questions.??

So, wherever you are in the hybrid debate, make sure you’re?signed up?to receive our blogs so that you don’t miss out on hybrid working: are you asking the right question. It lands Tuesday 16 August.?

Cheers,?
