My work goal is to bring humanity back in the workplace for the benefit of employees and companies.

My overall goal is to make the world a better and kinder place.

Some values: integrity, authenticity, kindness, fairness, responsibility, honesty, being present..

I am badass and caring 💕

Why are there never enough hours in the day? Why are you always running to catch up?

Have you ever noticed that you’re not the only one? And yet, and yet. The world keeps turning. The stuff we think we’re supposed to be doing doesn’t get done, because none of us are super-human.

One of the cartoons in my new book 'Physics for Cats' which is out now in the UK, USA, Canada, France and Germany. Order from your local bookshops or online: www.tomgauld.com/
Two beetles on a stick.
One beetle says to the other "Do you ever get the feeling we are being observed by another lifeform"
Zoom out to reveal that they are in a glass case with two scientists studying them.
One scientist says to the other "Do you ever get the feeling we are being observed by another lifeform"
Zoom out into space. Abouard a spaceship, two aliens watch the scientists on a screen.
One alien says to the other "Do you ever get the feeling we are being observed by another lifeform"
The aliens turn to look out at the reader.

Text below the cartoon reads: 
From 'Physics for Cats' by Tom Gauld. Preorder it at www.tomgauld.

Maria Corina Machado won the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize for fighting for democracy in Venezuela. In hiding, facing death threats, she never left her people.
Yet the reporting focuses on the undeserving one who lobbied for it.
We choose our attention. Give it to leaders like her, not narcissists.

Are buddhists atheists as they don’t believe in gods?

Oh dear such terrorism you do… and not even inclusive terrorism: why only punish the Christian religion?

But also: what about agnostic people?

Sarcasm may apply 😁

CN cancer
It's been a while since my last #ReverseCasualFriday. Today is an important one: It's breast cancer awareness month!
Breast cancer doesn't care about your gender or age so please, everyone, check your boobs!
If anything feels ever so slightly off, tell your doctor.

The government shouldn’t be encouraging companies to fire people and hire robots.

But that is exactly what our current tax system does.

I believe we need this safety more than ever, and we can all contribute to safety growing by being curious and kind.

Afterwards I got feedback that the talk gave some food for thought which is even more important than just liking it 💕

Take care and be kind to others and yourself 💕

The conference ended with my keynote “We still don’t have psychological safety”, where I talked about one of my favourite topics. I explained what psychological safety is, why we need it, how leaders play a great part in creating safety. And then about the many signs that we don’t have it.

I was lucky enough to win the book. It feels like the book will complement how I have been working with leadership.

I found the topic so good that I spent the next hour adding two quotes from Geoff’s to my keynote, where they fit right in. This also happened to be the last hour before my keynote 😆

No magic bullets there, so it will still take work, but it looks very applicable. It was my second mobility exercise that day as I was nodding a lot while Geoff was speaking. It seems that Geoff and I are very aligned on leadership. T he talk was based on his newest book “Calm REBEL Leadership” 😊
nativewired.com
The third one was Geoff Watts' with “Calm REBEL - leading without losing yourself” about how authentic leaders can lose themselves in the systems. I could sadly relate to a lot of the things, so I was pleased when he moved to the part about reclaiming yourself and your authenticity in 5 steps.

Col guided us calmly through different mobilising exercises for each major joint. The exercise ranged from easy ones to the more complicated ones - I of course couldn’t make it to the complicated ones with my stiff old body 😆

The second was the morning session “Awareness, joint mobility, and body-mind connection” by Col Maggs. I went out of curiousity and it never hurts with extra mobility 😊

It was such a good start to the day - and a good way of figuring out how stiff your body is 😆

The case was a very good example of starting where we are and improving from there, instead of starting all things and likely fail.

Thierry always conveys the messages in a good and very understandable way. I also love his sense of humour :)

This time was no different; if anything, it was better 🌸

Thierry explained how he introduced code review in a new group, and how they made it non-blocking to not stop their releases.
nativewired.com
It was two days of interesting talks and workshops, where three stood out to me:

First was “Non-blocking continuous code-reviews, a case story” by @tdpauw.bsky.social

I always enjoy hearing Thierry’s talks. He provides great insight in various ways of getting higher quality code :)
