I worked in the public, humanitarian and private sector in leadership, well-being and psychology. For over 30 years. I have learned that each organisation strives for decency but there are always toxic elements. These drain people’s energy, motivation and decency.
The best way to ensure decency in leadership and organisations is to work collaboratively in the workplace. We then free ourselves to be our best, looking after our self care and well-being. And we must tackle and address the negativity and toxicity.
We need to pause and reflect on the greater purpose of working to leave a good enough legacy for the next generation. Isn’t that our obligation?
I have learned, over the years, that I am fallible and will make mistakes and errors. That sometimes, I err on the negative side. So I am a work in progress, as we all are.
I hope you enjoy the books. Many have praised them, for which I am grateful.
“Brilliant” Five stars. Anthony Manning “These books are great. They’re packed full of interesting and pertinent ideas - and exercises to help us explore how the topic in question plays out in our own thinking and behaviour. “Decency” might at first sound like an old-fashioned concept - but it is all the more vital in our complex, fast-paced and ever-changing world of work. It’s the least we can expect of ourselves and each other, if the vital relationships upon which organisations’ endeavours succeed, or fail, are to thrive. It’s also what we should expect from our leaders (in all fields), who should aspire to be role models of truly people-centred behaviour, rather than primarily focused on goals and targets.” David Love.
Thank you
