Nothing like seeing Lindisfarne from the train on a sunny day! If only the train was moving… Hopefully we get skates on, and I’m not late for the @wellcometrust.bsky.social regional meeting bringing colleagues working on their funded #ResearchCulture projects together - looking forward to it!

Sometimes, you need to slow down in order to speed up. It can be difficult to know exactly when, but I’m learning that when something’s not feeling quite right, it’s better to stop and discuss with people, find a shared sense of purpose, and move on more energised. #MyLifeInPostIts #AlwaysLearning

New book just out and looks like it’s going to be an interesting holiday read. Builds on Schein’s (and other’s) work on #OrganisationalCulture and already making me think about culture change from a different perspective…. #ResearchCulture
