CRITICAL THINKING​. My education from a Brain Surgeon in a Trauma Room.​

Feb 2024
Anthony Hayward
My education on the importance of slowing down to Think Critically was decades ago in a Trauma Room in Ben Taub Hospital, Houston, Texas.

Ben Taub is one of the world’s leading trauma centers and at the time the hospital with the most cases of gunshot wounds in the US, to the degree that the US military would send Physicians there for experience. I was given extraordinary access & could photograph whatever I wanted.

Organisations live or die by communications. It’s vital for collaboration, teamwork, and clarity of purpose. It's lovely when Learning and Development teams get it too. Even better when they’re realistic about how long it takes to develop communications skills across teams. Such a hard-to-teach and essential human skill isn’t a one-and-done activity. It takes time to master. But how long? A day. A year. A lifetime?

One of the key themes of 2022 was talent, or, more precisely, the lack of it.

This puts a brake on their growth just as they need to find momentum to escape recession. May India, home to the world’s single largest pool of workers, hold the key?

CRITICAL THINKING​. My education from a Brain Surgeon in a Trauma Room.​

Feb 2024
Anthony Hayward
My education on the importance of slowing down to Think Critically was decades ago in a Trauma Room in Ben Taub Hospital, Houston, Texas.

Ben Taub is one of the world’s leading trauma centers and at the time the hospital with the most cases of gunshot wounds in the US, to the degree that the US military would send Physicians there for experience. I was given extraordinary access & could photograph whatever I wanted.

Organisations live or die by communications

Organisations live or die by communications. It’s vital for collaboration, teamwork, and clarity of purpose. It's lovely when Learning and Development teams get it too. Even better when they’re realistic about how long it takes to develop communications skills across teams. Such a hard-to-teach and essential human skill isn’t a one-and-done activity. It takes time to master. But how long? A day. A year. A lifetime?

The Tech Nirvana - Why Employers are Flocking to it

Jan 2023
One of the key themes of 2022 was talent, or, more precisely, the lack of it. The challenge for many companies that rely on technology is that they can’t find enough of the right talent in their home markets.
