Thank you everyone. Lots more ideas to reflect, and act, on! π€πΌ #LTHEChat #digitalleadership
A5: agreed! #digitalleadership needs modelling acceptance of uncertainty, meeting others where they are but also being clear in expectations #LTHEChat #digitalleadership
A4: Iβm also a fan of @jisc.bsky.social resources and particularly their Discovery Tool. It helped me support colleagues in translating their development needs specific to their context #digitalleadership
Agree! Academic citizenship and goodwill does some heavy lifting in this space, but also v rewarding Iβve found #digitalleadership
A3: Challenging assumptions about who has confidence/skills in all things digital, and who doesnβt! #LTHEChat #digitalleadership
A2: Iβve moved in and out of formal roles in digital leadership and found that for informal leadership, role modelling behaviours and practice is all the more important #LTHEChat #digitalleadership
A1: discussions around the necessary expertise have certainly been a prominent theme in our research so far #LTHEChat
A1 - whilst I think there are definite similarities, I do think #digitalleadership is sometimes (wrongly) siloed rather than integrated into broader transformational perspectives #LTHEChat
Dusting off my account to join in #LTHEchat tonight with @dralison.bsky.social #digitalleadership
Jon Wilkin asking the necessary questions tonight. He should be hosting Question Time #rugbyleague
Astonishing interview on R4Today between Justin Webb and new Oxford Chancellor William Hague. Webb thinks the biggest concern for students is cancel culture. From my experience (actual lecturer), it's the cost of living & the ongoing mental health disaster for young people. Neither were addressed
Iβm also a disgrace to physical education. Forgot about that.
Iβm Beth and I need more fire in my eyes.
If you bring central London to a halt in order to campaign against catastrophic climate change then you're a "barmy" eco "fanatic" who deserves to be locked up.
If you do the same to hang on to your multimillion pound inheritance tax exemption then you're a brave freedom fighter defying the odds
Itβs perfectly okay to write in books. And thatβs a hill Iβll die on. (I fold over the corners too).
Positive start to the week as one of my PhD students has had her first study published π Anca is examining gambling cultures in recently professionalized women's sports in the UK and her systematic review is open access cdspress.ca?page_id=5587
