What does it mean to lead right side up? We have to address people - not just what they do, but who they are, giving them a chance to express how they’re feeling, not just what they’re doing. In truth, the best leaders are those who engage with their teams on both levels.
Being a leader in times like these isn’t just about resilience. @MichelleBB explains the role of emotional intelligence to lead right side up in an upside-down world. https://t.co/EIpTAEcr8r

Love means never having to say you’re sorry. Leadership is never forgetting how powerful I’m sorry can be. It's why the note from @Graza CEO Andrew Benin has gone viral. In a world where form-letter apologies abound, a genuine apology goes far. #leadership

Q3/A3 We have to revisit the way we think about talent. We can't just focus on a "buy" strategy, we must also have a "build/bridge" focus. Talent should be a strategic imperative. We need to foster a culture of curiosity & performance because we must think differently. #PMLnDIN

Q2/A2 Three, Learning must be outcome-driven. People learn best when they are solving problems, so we should focus on outcomes rather than activity metrics. How is learning propelling the org forward. #PMLnDIN

Q2/A2 Two, flexibility. Companies are adopting a workplace strategy that balances the need for interpersonal connection with the desire for flexibility. That flexibility should be built into learning as well - both where and how #PMLnDIN

Q1/A1 For all of the importance of putting skills at the heart of recruitment and reskilling, we don't have a universal skills taxonomy. And I think it's a tremendous opportunity to create a common language #PMLnDIN

My daughters - our daughters - deserve better than this.
Today’s decision is a gender, racial and economic justice catastrophe with deadly consequences. Women and people who can become pregnant have been forced into a second-class status. The impacts will fall hardest on Black women who already face a severe maternal mortality crisis.
