There are more avenues to helping a leader realise they need to change to create psychological safety than I shared in my blog last week. While showing them what was happening is a good start, you also need to make sure they understand what they can have if they make changes. That is, answer the question “What’s In It For Me?” (WIIFM).
A good way to do that is to contrast what is happening now with the type of changes you are suggesting and the favourable outcomes they can expect. Here are three

There are lies, damned lies, and statistics. While this warning is never terribly far from the political surface, it should be axiomatic whenever anyone starts talking about Covid data. It has been years since a common pool of data has been so thoroughly mishandled by all sides, and this is sure to continue at least until a vaccine has been developed and delivered.

Leaders need to examine their core beliefs if they want to prosper in a COVID-19 world.
Culture is all-encompassing. It radiates through every action taken inside an organization — including deciding what is made and sold, which employees are hired and retained, which customers are serviced and how, what is measured and reported, and where time and money are invested.
However, while some leaders stri
Outsourcing has developed the most renowned business trends recently due to its rising profile as a management strategy for improving productivity in the management of resources. To decrease cost and enhance the nature of their recruitment cycle, numerous organizations transfer part or entire of their recruitment process to outer services providers known as recruitment process outsourcing (RPO).

The Coronavirus outbreak that hit us earlier in the year increased into a pandemic that affected practically every country in the world. As a result, countries had to go into lockdown to prevent the spread of it further. Keeping healthy during these times have been vital, as countries continue to come in and out of lockdowns to prevent any further spread and enclose the virus as safe as possible.
There are a number of different ways that you can help to protect those around you whilst staying at
Last week I wrote about Kate and her experience of “psychological warfare” which is a culture where psychological safety does not exist. Upon reflection, Kate realised that while she created psychological safety for her team she did not create it for herself. So when she spoke up, her boss and others on the executive felt threatened and reacted with an array of avoiding, delaying and blame-shifting strategies.
Kate and I spoke about how she could have done things differently. In hindsight, she re
The single most pressing challenge for an organization in this knowledge economy is attracting and retaining talented people. This can be a make or break challenge for the organization and warrants careful consideration during Strategic Planning.
Starting on the right foot is absolutely essential to overcoming this challenge. Organizations, particularly HR, need to have an Organizational Culture that boasts of an effective Employee Onboarding process. In order to accomplish this, present-day
With the purpose of developing better strategies to identify hidden risks and building better products, web data extraction can help to transform data into a structured format that can assist businesses in making key decisions in today’s ever-changing environment.
However, this is an area that has become increasingly complex, as a result of evolving structures, practices and organisational requirements.
To break down some of the most important issues, Scrapinghub hosted this year’s Web Data Extrac
Mediocre people occupying senior leadership positions is one of the chief reasons for the fiasco and humiliation that organizations like Enron and WorldCom faced. The practice of recruiting average people at the top is omnipresent and often goes unnoticed until the results begin to surface, which is typically too late for any intervention.
Smart people decisions matter a lot in achieving profitability. Research indicates that a return on average human asset of 5% is typical in many industries.

There is no doubt that traditional banking, both in Latin America and in the rest of the world, has played an important role in credit risk management. However, implementation and performance models have lagged behind the application of new, more effective technologies. While fintech and online companies process loans without collateral, requesting few documents and in five minutes, banks are still adapting to this reality. For these financial institutions should move quickly to use with big dat

I expect the term psychological warfare interests you because you are wondering which kind I would be writing about. Would it be about China, the US Election or state border restrictions in Australia? None of those. It’s about needing to operate in a culture where psychological safety is not just lacking, it’s non-existent.
Recently I invited a guest speaker to my monthly Risk Leadership Group to share her experience in a toxic environment. Let’s call her Kate. What Kate experienced was a culture
