Great article, food for thought as well. Highlighting the difference between communication paths and organization structures and why driving core principals are required regardless of what org and comms structure used is quite useful.

What great food for thought and guidance! Each of the principles you mention need “unpacking” in my opinion. Especially as modern teams are often culturally diverse and your model - I assume - must cater to everyone. Thanks for the clever way you presented it too, lights, action!

Thanks Ian. This article suffered from a rare case of The Edits, leaving some of those elaborations on the cutting room floor. Otherwise this would have been a 4,000 word tome! What would you unpack? Let’s give it a try!

Perhaps a sequel is required this time starring Debra as she unpacks some core values and principles. For example what are integrity, transparency, diversity, inclusion, respect and how does the “modern leader,” my term for what you espouse, communicate when certain information needs to be kept confidential other than saying “I can’t tell you that.”
