6 Dos and Don’ts for Resilience post-Brexit | Janine

15/7/2016

0 Comments

 

Some say that the UK Brexit vote on 23rd June was a vote against the establishment, a statement of general dissatisfaction with the way things are, a distrust of our politicians and a desire for more control, more democracy and independence. Others argue that it was ill-informed, driven by xenophobia and those seeking personal gain.

Not only has the vote divided the country, it’s caused ructions at work, families to fragment and a rise in reported racist incidents throughout the UK.

A sorry tale of Baby P and three Grown-up Ps, the Press, Police and Politicians | Paul

18/4/2016

In ‘The Story of Baby P: Setting the record straight’, Ray Jones explains how the media distorted the sad saga of the death of 17-month-old Peter Connelly in 2007, following terrible domestic neglect and abuse.
 
The focus is on the reporting and how The Sun newspaper in particular led a campaign against the social workers involved in the case.
 
It captures neatly the double bind that pressurises social services even now. They can be attacked for being all too ready to snatch children away from their families. And, as in this instance, remiss in allowing children to stay in the harm's way of their dangerous families.

Here's the interview.

What VUCA means for SF leaders  |  Paul

3/12/2012

0 Comments

 
It's good to stay abreast of buzz words, and the buzziest right now could well be VUCA.  We'll get to what it means in a moment, but how do we know it's so current?  Well,  VUCA came up in the first two presentations at the launch of the Centre for Progressive Leadership this week at London Metropolitan University - in itself a buzzy place to be.
