Way too organised

Wednesday, January 31st, 2007

It’s seems crazy but I’m sitting at home watching TV and we’re about to go out for a drink at the pub with some friends. Crazy because we’re travelling at 6am tomorrow morning. But the truth is, we have nothing to do. Rachel is so organised that it seems like we’ve been packed and ready […]

New camera!

Tuesday, January 30th, 2007

A new camera which we ordered over the weekend arrived today and we’re very excited and have been playing around with it this evening. It is much better than our current digital camera, if not quite so pocket sized. We wanted something that would take better pictures in poor light as well as having anti-blur […]

Leadership - Part 2

Monday, January 29th, 2007

If you missed part 1, you can read that here.
I want to start a conversation today about the role leaders have in being the guardians and champions of their organisations culture. The culture of any organisation will tell you about where the organisation will be in 5, 10, or 15 years far more than […]

Leadership - Part 1

Friday, January 26th, 2007

Continuing on from yesterday’s post, I want to spend a bit of time in some of my next few posts talking about leadership. Whether you are a leader or not, I’d love to invite you to join in with the conversation and share you own thoughts. Feel free to disagree with anything I say, as […]

Great leaders

Thursday, January 25th, 2007

My post this morning included an Amazon delivery bringing me a copy of a book called Culture Shift by Robert Lewis and Wayne Cordeiro. The foreword is written by Erwin McManus, and as I quickly glanced through it, once sentence just really grabbed me on leadership which I thought I’d share:
“In a strange kind […]

‘Altruistic’ brain region found

Tuesday, January 23rd, 2007

I came across a couple of interesting articles on the BBC website and in the Guardian newspaper yesterday. Neuroscientists are saying that they have found the brain’s charity spot: a region that determines whether we put others before ourselves.
I’d be interested in people’s thoughts, so why not have a read and then post any comments […]

Overwhelmed by boxes

Wednesday, January 17th, 2007

If all goes to plan, a week on Friday we’ll be moving into the new house that we’re buying. The thought of owning our own home and transforming it into something exactly as we want it is definitely exciting. Sadly, preparing to move house is not so much fun. Well, for me at least. Rachel […]
