Today @ipprscotland.bsky.social publishes new analysis showing that by 2030 child poverty in Scotland will be:

- well below the rest of the UK due to devolved policies
- more than twice as high as the Scottish Government's current target

"The fundamental recommendation; ensuring there are enough midwives to provide care - is not being addressed. It is tantamount to gaslighting to be told consistently there are no vacancies when we cannot meet care needs in numbers or skill mix." @jakil.bsky.social always on the money. #midwifery

Today, mitsmr.bsky.social published ten essential leadership tips for 2025 to "build your leadership skill set & solve tough challenges in the new year": sloanreview.mit.edu/article/10-e...
Interesting how many of them are so called "soft skills". Perspectives of leadership are changing.
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
