“10/10 Learning”

“I would have chosen more than a 10/10 if I could have. This should be compulsory learning for all leaders.

Farah Akbar, Deputy Head of Institute

This work is for you if you recognise any of these typical challenges…

Decisions do not stick, even if they are politely agreed to. The same topics or behaviours repeat over and over. Disagreements go unspoken, even when everyone can feel them. Energy drops regularly around meetings or certain topics. Team meetings are ineffective at moving work forward or connecting people. Gossip spreads. Resistance to change or leadership decisions is common. Excuses pile up. Tensions simmer and escalate. People withdraw, go on leave, quietly (or loudly) quit.

This work is for people who sense that the usual approaches of another team away day or another round of meetings won’t really address what needs to shift long term. Something more fundamental has to change in how people work together, not just in what they do.

This way to learn more.
