High-performing teams rarely fail overnight. They drift.
Meetings become quieter.
Challenge disappears.
People stop saying what they really think.
Performance declines long before the numbers show it.
The question isn't "Who's the problem?"
It's "What changed in the team?"

Yes, I’m working this weekend. Yes, I’m looking forward to it. But no, I’m not speaking to anyone until the caffeine kicks in
Burnout is rarely about people, usually, it’s about chronic stress + unclear boundaries. Leaders can reduce risk by auditing workload, modelling healthy boundaries, normalising help-seeking & building psychological safety

Loved the Lee Miller exhibition, but is it too much to ask that the wall text explain what women were up against at the time… without reducing it to “short hair = liberation”? History deserves more than a haircut.
A day of working on a new project, but first, coffee in Russell Square with some of the nicest Italians in London.
Great day working with the incredible leaders at UAL, exploring what it takes to build and sustain high-performing teams! Inspired by the insights and collaboration #HighPerformingTeams
