With UK employee engagement stuck at a dismal 10% and workplace wellbeing declining, we're witnessing a fundamental breakdown in people's relationship with work. Dominic Ashley-Timms and Laura Ashley-Timms argue the government's new employment rights bill, while well-intentioned, misses the mark. Enter Operational Coaching® - a management approach that's showing remarkable results. By shifting from telling to asking, managers who adopt this enquiry-led style are spending 70% more time coaching their teams, leading to sixfold improvements in employee retention. The choice is clear: continue with outdated management practices, or embrace a new approach that puts people first. Which side of this transformation will you be on? #LeadershipDevelopment #EmployeeEngagement #WorkplaceCulture https://lnkd.in/eUW_hdzy

McKinsey & Company's latest diversity report tells us what we already suspected: diverse companies perform better. But here's the uncomfortable truth - simply hiring a #diverse workforce isn't enough. The real challenge? Understanding that #diverse teams have diverse needs. While 25% of British managers report more "demanding" employees, perhaps we should reframe this: employees are finally voicing what they need to succeed. Karl Bennett says success requires a fundamental shift in #leadership approach. It's about leaders who can truly listen, adapt, and create environments where individual strengths flourish. This means moving beyond token one-on-ones to genuine dialogue that shapes development plans and growth opportunities. https://lnkd.in/e9QC2rXZ #DiversityInLeadership #InclusiveCulture #WorkplaceCulture
