Look at the women at NASA.

They are the ones pushing the boundaries of science, solving problems most people can’t even understand, and carrying this country forward, while our politicians right now posture and stumble through talking points.

And they are doing it all with joy.👇

And it really makes a difference that we appreciate! Being given permission to think and write one day a week feels like a luxury, but it shouldn’t be in a sector that is supposed to be all about original thought!

Space is the most precious commodity in HE. We made Fridays meeting free across BNU for that reason

An institution signals why is important by what it promotes and rewards as also what it allows to happen in its name… #ActionsSoeakLoudly

Agreed. Stopping things is one of the key actions leaders can do. I cut 60% of committees for that reason

A5 A realistic time in the workload to experiment and fail. Plus a time to rest. Do nothing, a no emails after 6pm. It is in the rest, we grow, flourish? You can't plunder the same resource without replenishing it, this is a recipe for burnou.t LTHEChat

But if you find you were wrong and the plan isn’t working be humble enough to acknowledge it and change

Thank you @profdamienpage.bsky.social for an excellent topic to focus on and discuss #LTHEchat

Thank you for another thought provoking chat! Good evening all! #LTHEchat

Thank you @profdamienpage.bsky.social for these great questions 🙏👏 - to all other senior leaders - as Delia Smith once said 'let's be havin' you!' #LTHEChat

#LTHEchat THANK YOU so much for the chat tonight with guest Prof Damien Page - the times may be apocalyptic - but there is still some radical hope amongst the ruins ...

Yes well put Sandra, there is always hope and @profdamienpage.bsky.social and a few others give me hope in #Education for public good. 🙏 #LTHEChat

Yes there are successful online programs, I agree Pam. Physical or virtual spaces as I said. #LTHEChat

That’s how it used to be when I started in HE

I love me some time boxing, to-do lists really don't work for me but I have an almost Pavlovian response to stuff in my Outlook!

So few senior managers have training in this area. Decades ago I taught English for Secretaries in FE and learned a lot

Thanks all, really interesting chat tonight. Thanks to @profdamienpage.bsky.social for the questions and much to think about. Hope the rest of the week goes well for all #LTHEchat

Thanks everyone #LTHEChat

#lthechat Thanks for facilitating a great chat! Good night everyone

I have but so superficial to be insulting, and completely failing to spot that grade based selection pools meant that all Global Majority staff were in scope and most White colleagues safe … 😡 #LTHEchat
