It should leave us thinking about us. >The majority of people the NHS cares for are women. >The majority of carers are women. >Three quarters of the workforce, are women. Women are substantially underrepresented (37%) in senior positions across the NHS. myemail.constantcontact.com/…

When female role models suffer brutal misogyny, they become a cautionary tale for other women's aspirations. Patriarchy praises submissive women but punishes overachieving ones--with the goal of keeping all women in their "place". @Martha_Gill theguardian.com/commentisfre…

I've been asked what "push authority to information" means. Often, frontline people have the information but not the authority to make decisions. Good leaders respond by delegating skills/support/org clarity for decision making. Principle from @ldavidmarquet Art: @sketchplanator

Misogyny is exhausting to deal with, but we don't often talk about the impact of internalised misogyny. By internalised misogyny, I'm referring to the voices many of us have in our heads casting self-doubt, telling us to be nicer, be good, give abusers the benefit of doubt🧵

When we compare ourselves to other people, we put pressure on ourselves to aspire to similar goals as they achieve & to fit into the same kind of box. The only people we should compare ourselves to is ourselves, to be stars in our own right, on our own terms. Thanks @lizandmollie

GREAT NEWS My ongoing campaign to limit the number of people retweeting this image and causing any upset to Boris Johnson has made great progress I am now so confident that nobody will RT it that I am going to tag in @BorisJohnson so he can see how well we're doing. Thank you.

Reality check: It's 2022 and no country has achieved gender equality, nor is close to it. Let’s put women’s rights on the agenda and ask world leaders to step it up for women and girls.
