I’m the intricate dance of human connections, the quality of our questions defines the depth of our relationships.

Asking thoughtful, open-ended questions not only unlocks insights but also strengthens the bonds we share.

Quality questions promote active listening, forging a pathway to empathy and understanding, whether in professional collaborations or personal relationships.

Embark on the journey of inquiry, one thoughtful question at a time, and witness the transformative effect it can have on the tapestry of our connections with others.

Bear with us as we go through a business name and brand change!

WHAT ELEPHANTS CAN TEACH US ABOUT BEING GREAT LEADERS?

ELEPHANT SOCIETY IS BUILT AROUND THE MATRIARCH AND FEMALE ELDERS.

ELEPHANTS ARE EXCELLENT COMMUNICATORS, CONTINUOUSLY ‘TALKING’ THROUGH VIBRATIONS AS WELL AS THE MORE WELL-KNOWN TRUMPETING AND HARRUMPHING.

THE CONSTANT REASSURANCE FROM THE MATRIARCH THROUGH EVERYTHING THAT SHE DOES KEEPS THE INDIVIDUAL ELEPHANTS FOCUSED ON THE TASK AT HAND, WHETHER SEARCHING FOR WATER OR PROTECTING THE YOUNG. SHE DOES NOT LEAD THROUGH FEAR, SHE IS GUIDING HER HERD THROUGH THE RESPECT AND TRUST THAT SHE HAS EARNED.

KNOWN FOR THEIR EMPATHY AND COOPERATION, ELEPHANTS SENSE WHEN ANOTHER IN THE HERD NEEDS HELP AND THEN KNOWS WHAT TO DO TO HELP.

ELEPHANTS CAN RECOGNIZE THEMSELVES IN A MIRROR. DID YOU KNOW THAT THEY CAN ALSO BE LEFT- OR RIGHT-TRUNKED? MY POINT? IT IS IMPORTANT TO KNOW WHERE YOUR STRENGTHS LIE. IT IS ALSO IMPORTANT TO KNOW WHEN TO USE THEM.

THE MATRIARCH TEACHES OTHER ELEPHANTS WHERE THE BEST WATERHOLES ARE, HOW TO PROTECT THE HERD, AND SO ON. THEY DO NOT KEEP THIS INFORMATION TO THEMSELVES, THEY IMPART IT TO OTHERS SO THAT THE FUTURE OF THE HERD IS PROTECTED.

ELEPHANTS MAY BE THE LARGEST LAND ANIMALS ON EARTH, BUT THEY WALK SO GENTLY THAT YOU BARELY HEAR THEM, LEAVING AS LIGHT A FOOTPRINT AS POSSIBLE ON THEIR WORLD. WHAT DOES THIS TELL US? A LIFE LESSON TO WALK GRACEFULLY THROUGH LIFE.

ELEPHANTS MAINTAIN AUTHENTIC RELATIONSHIPS WITH OTHERS IN THEIR HERD THROUGH A CLOSE SOCIAL NETWORK OF WORK AND PLAY. THE HERD TRUSTS THE MATRIARCH BECAUSE OF THESE BONDS, ACTING AS ONE UNIT AS THEY FOLLOW HER LEAD. SOCIAL INTELLIGENCE IS CRUCIAL IN LEADING YOUR TEAM, IN SHAPING YOUR CULTURE.

ENJOY LIFE. THERE’S NOTHING BETTER THAN WATCHING A TWO-HUNDRED POUND NEWBORN ELEPHANT PLAYING AT A WATERING HOLE, SPLASHING AROUND WITH ITS FAMILY WITHOUT A CARE IN THE WORLD.

CONFIDENT AND COMPASSIONATE, ELEPHANTS SERVE AS AN INCREDIBLE EXAMPLE FOR LEADERS WHO WANT TO DEVELOP AND LEAD BETTER.

Money isn't everything. Many surveys show salary sits below other factors in the job search 💸

Most people are equally/more interested in a positive working environment, good leadership and having balance in their lives.

But employee experience is always evolving - just like our relationship with work. Salary will always be a big part of the value you give to your people. And like anything, salaries must evolve with the demands of the market 😊

According to WTW , 96% of companies across the globe have increased salaries in response to inflation, pushes for pay equity and talent market pressures.

The talent world is evolving faster than ever before.

Aside from competitive salaries, employees can access various different benefits which are more than pocket liners.

Modern benefits include mental health support, paid professional development, additional leave, and flexible working.

Offering the right combination of an attractive, fair market salary and other modern benefits (which may even be personalised for each employee!) is critical to attracting and retaining top talent and providing a great employee experience 💕

The combination of these paints a picture of a workplace culture that not only meets the needs of their employees, but treats them like the assets they are!

Recent Fair Work dismissal cases point to a multitude of Employers getting the redundancy process wrong, and not meeting their obligations as an Employer:

○ Language used in consultation meetings - it's important that these meetings are to consult with the employee, as required by the Award/EA, and that no language indicating the outcome is already determined is used.
○ Redeployment options - rather than outright stating that there are no viable redeployment options, explain to the employee within the consultation meeting and letter the redeployment options that were considered, and why these are not viable for the employee's skillset or for the business' needs moving forward
○ Time - the employee needs reasonable time to consider options available and provide feedback to their manager about options they have considered to mitigate them being left without a role in the Company, and to have a chance to bring forward any information that may change the Employer's mind about suitability for a redeployment option.

In the business world, too many people think it’s all about being hard, tough, ambitious, or having grit.

Yes, these things are important, but trust me — that’s not where we’re lacking as a collective.

We have the “hard things” down. I think it’s actually the “soft things” that are harder to master, and I think kindness is a real foundation to why soft skills are so important in life and business.

What people misunderstand about kindness is that a lot of it comes down to fear.

People are scared that they’re gonna fail, that they’re gonna be taken advantage of, etc. So, instead of being kind, they throw their defenses up.

Trust me, being kind isn’t a sign of weakness.

The truth is, kindness is a strength that is greatly underrated.

As a HR Consultant, I absolutely love this and the concept of continuing to remove any reservation of admitting anxiety and depression, but I am also a huge advocate of wellness days in general. 🤒

Just as important as having the freedom to call in sick or sad, imagine being able to call in ‘happy’ so you can enjoy a day in the sun or to celebrate a moment. ☀️

I prefer the idea of ‘me days’ - a day when I just need to take care of me - whether that’s sick, healthy, happy or sad. 🙋🏼‍♀️ 💛
