Organisations should take steps to make sure health and care professionals feel safe speaking up in them. We've published a case study on HEIW's Raising Concerns Reflective Toolkit, which shows the kind of steps that can they can take 📚👇 hcpc-uk.org/Resources/Case-S…

In 2020, with the UK's health provision in crisis, changes to our processes allowed thousands of professionals to join the workforce. As 2025 begins, we look back on the changes and why we're reinstating the 12-month return to practice updating period. hcpc-uk.org/news-and-events/…

Today, @mitsmr published ten essential leadership tips for 2025 to "build your leadership skill set & solve tough challenges in the new year". Each tip has a click through to a full article: 1) Articulate your leadership values & hold yourself accountable 2) Delegate better: consider the level of trust in the process 3) Get honest input: empower people to stop self-censoring 4) Tap the power of mid level managers to strengthen culture 5) Develop more continuous learners in your organisation 6) Set better boundaries with your team 7) Energise team meetings: Make everyone feel heard 8) Stop exalting busyness 9) Be a manager — not a mouthpiece for higher-ups 10) Communicate more effectively about change: sloanreview.mit.edu/article/… Interesting how many of them are so called "soft skills". Perspectives of leadership are changing.
