Shared this on other platforms and it's come to sum up what I think and do around #inclusion strategy.
Follow me, it's what you'll get. #CQ is #culturalIntelligence, which is defined as the capability to work and relate effectively across difference.
I hope you'll enjoy my posts and interactions.

Delighted #BuildingInclusion has been recognised! @marsharamroop.bsky.social did a little dance to celebrate. Great citation too: "Clear, practical, deeply informed... It's thoughtful. It's relevant and accessible. And it's a valuable tool for professionals across the sector".

If we're to be better at sustainable development we must recognise this is not just about climate action, but biodiversity protection too. Also, we must stop throwing it to individuals to make change. The #BuiltEnvironment must fundamentally change its practices to reduce emissions & impact. #LREF25

Is it too early to take issue with the setting of the agenda at #LREF25?!
#InclusiveGrowth is an oxymoron, & #AI is in the hands of a powerful few... not setting us up for shared prosperity which would lead to better outcomes for people, place & planet.
We need to talk about SMEs... not yet heard.

Our world faces a crisis as yet unpercieved by those [with] great power to make great decisions for good or evil. The unleashed power of the atom has changed everything, save our modes of thinking. A new type of thinking is essential if [hu]mankind is to survive and [reach] higher levels. -Einstein
