Sheni Ravji-Smith has a aura about her. It’s hard to pin down and describe but she’s one of those people who never fails to top up your energy levels. She speaks with care and compassion whilst at the same time continually challenging and asking the why questions that help us all to move our thinking forward. So what can we learn from Sheni that will help us to think differently about how we build change capacity within our organisations? Click the pic to read more……

Anyone who knows me knows that one of the things I care very deeply about is diversity. I can’t tell you how privileged I feel to be able to dive into the arena of neurodiversity in leadership this week. Shirley Woods-Gallagher is a brilliantly intelligent, visionary leader and she’s very recently had her identify confirmed as autistic. Shirley has taken the brave step to talk about this publicly and she’s determined she’s going to give everything she’s got to make change happen. Click the pic to read more……

It’s holiday season people. Schools are out (in a good way, not a lockdown way), people are taking time off work and the heatwave…….has ended!! It must be British summer time! Holidays are hugely important and never more so than after the last 18 months we’ve been through. They matter because they enable us to rest, recover and reflect - what I like to think of as the 3Rs of holidays. Click on pic to read more
Cordelle Ofori oozes credibility. She’s a woman driven by a burning passion to improve peoples’ lives and address health inequalities. Cordelle is one of those people that other people trust.

When I started my blog series - Secret Musings of a Change Agent - with a view to busting some myths and getting under the skin of what makes ordinary people great at making change happen, I wasn’t sure where it would go, how it would be received or how long I’d keep it running for. Due to fabulous feedback I’ve decided to continue, so, while I line up the next round of people to feature, I’ve decided to pause this week and take stock of what’s coming through so far and what questions that might help us to ponder.
