I recently shared this new sketch note on LinkedIn about Leadership for Organising, to share some of the learning from Marshall Ganz's book People Power Change. What stands out for you?

Today's #TeaOnTrains lacks tea! 😳 Off to Bangor on an earlier train and didn't have time to do my usual morning set-up! 😱 So Pear and Apple squash in a Shine Like A Star 🌟 cup is the best I could do!

Off to deliver Day 2 of Improvement in Action to Cohort 4 😀 #QISky

In today's edition of #TeaOnTrains I am off to Wrexham to deliver the final session of Improvement in Action Cohort 3 and provide support with poster creation.

Doing a short course on Collective Care from @actbuildchange.com whilst drinking my brew!

On way my home with achy feet having walked 7 miles today at #NHSConfedExpo

Lovely to catch up with some of the lush people in my network and to meet and connect with some fab new people too!

Also lovely to introduce a colleague to some new people at her first Expo.

Well done @nhsconfed.org 👏

Great to see this on a conference agenda! Well done HEIW Wales Healthcare Science Conference 2025!

The day was based around working together & connecting as human beings. What does it mean to be human?

It looked at the power of storytelling & leadership for 'organising" around shared purpose.

"Power is an influence created by interdependence" - M.Ganz

This is the future of change 🙌

Just a few of many great photos from a fantastic day at @thekingsfund.bsky.social on Monday.

The underlying message from Prof. Marshall Ganz is one of hope!

"Hope is the space between fantasy and certainty"- M.Ganz

We need to know "what are we for?"

So lovely to see my wider network too 🥰❤️

At @thekingsfund.bsky.social looking forward to a great day learning from Marshall Ganz 😀

All my learning so far about running a small clothing brand will come to life with my very own shop

In year 1, I tried other platforms e.g. Etsy but they didn't work for me.

I've built my shop, applied techy learning for the search engines, added in apps...

& of course designed the products

I was thrilled to get the runner up award for Emerging Innovator at the 2024 BCUHB Research & Innovation Symposium & Awards for the #BetterByBetsi community.

Hearing the value our community members get from #BetterByBetsi brings me so much joy! I'm so proud of the community & our members

Thankyou!
