The first copies of Rewilding the Corporate Mind arrived. Thom Dennis has spent nearly fifty years watching how organisations work – and where they break down. This is the book that came from that. Thoughts welcome. #RewildingLeadership #FutureOfWork #Leadership

A whole day of talks from senior women in business on how to succeed. Only one speaker, the Duchess of Edinburgh, mentioned love. When did you last hear it said seriously at work?

A little clarification: Sophie, the Duchess of Edinburgh.

Where to start with Rewilding the Corporate Mind: the introduction, then the chapter on the masculine and the feminine. It's the material most leadership books skip. What does leadership talk about least?

Four questions worth sitting with: what women are taught to hide, where love turns controlling, what partnership looks like without domination, and what becomes possible when masculine and feminine meet without the old power struggle.

Which does your organisation reward more: pushing harder under pressure, or reading the room first?

Quote on the image: David Whyte on vulnerability. What did you stop hiding at work, and what happened?

Which builds more trust in a leader: "I've got this" or "I don't know, here's how we'll find out"? New article on why the second may win.

Vulnerability frightens leaders because it is costly, and the cost is what gives it force. When the person with the most to lose admits a mistake, everyone else learns it's safe to do the same.

Kayaking teaches you something leadership rarely does: you can't control the current, only how you respond to it. Control is fear's disguise, on the water just as much as in a boardroom. tinyurl.com/jxnjh9zk

So much of what looks like discipline or control in leadership is really an old fear wearing a new uniform. My new article looks at where that pattern starts. bit.ly/4i5vuTx

Roger Tempest doesn't settle whether this is evolution or something more radical, and that honesty is the point. Rewilding the Corporate Mind maps the direction of travel; where you land on it is yours to decide. training.serenityinleadershi…

Authentic community rests on a few consistent elements most organisations get half right. The poll below names four. Which is furthest from where you work?

People don't perform because they're told to. They perform because they feel safe enough to. That's biology, not sentiment. My new article looks at what that means for how we lead.
