Grenade throwers.

You know them.

(Real people, with metaphorical grenades)

The people in your organisation who have a tendency, even a reputation to disrupt.

They throw grenades because they object, challenge or undermine things publicly, in groups.

And they throw grenades at a distance from the real issues, often under-informed, not engaged in any meaningful dialogue or constructive improvement.

The purpose of introducing anything new is NOT to have it perfect first time.  In fact, the results you get might not even be great, just average, nothing to write home about.  

The ONE SINGLE UNIVERSAL purpose of introducing anything is to create the conditions so the right people say "yes, let's do that again".  

That's how starting something once turns into real change. 

Mental health is important enough to need a strategic approach, not just tactics.  In this wide ranging conversation, David Burroughs and I explore his deep experience in mental health strategy. 

David Burroughs is an experienced psychologist, with many years of consultancy and strategic leadership in the area of mental health and illness at work.  And he spent an hour with you and I talking all about it. 

I am setting a goal to enable people like you to plan and implement 1000 learning teams in organisations just like yours, and this is your invitation to be part of it. 

Learning teams, as they are referred to in the context of health and safety, are both awesome and problematic. 

They are awesome because those of us who plan, facilitate, teach/coach/enable learning teams or anyone who has participated in them know their value.
