I am currently reading Reimagine Inclusion, by Mita Mallick, and here is a powerful passage that caught my eye:
“I have watched too many leaders fall into this trap: protecting and allowing an individual to continue to work in their organisation who has a pattern of hurting and harming others. Leaders will do so at the expense of losing other employees. They will do so at the expense of losing the trust of their teams.”
This is a fascinating read – and everyone who aspires to be a people leader MUST read this book.

Friends, my friend David O’Keeffe shared this insightful article with me about value apex.
“… once an employee shares all of his external knowledge, learns all that there is to know about the business, and applies all of his past experiences, the growth stops. That employee, in that particular job, has become all that he can be. He has reached the value apex.
If that employee continues to work in the same job, his value will start to decline. What was once “fresh new ideas that we can’t implement today” become “the same old boring suggestions that we’re never going to do”.
