For many of us, any issue with a computer means switching if off and back on, hoping it then works as we assume it always will. This simple process is called rebooting. It is analogous for getting our organisations up and running again; to have kit that functions, processes which are effective and staff who are productive.

It doesn’t just happen! This is a time, more than ever before for leadership. To support leaders with these challenges, we have created a programme entitled REBOOT:

• Reflect and learn from the experiences
• Examine Emotions. The key motivator is how people feel and how you have made them feel during lockdown
• Behaviours; do they reflect the organisations values?
• Objectify the Future, what is the intelligence and how are we going to react?
• Overcome Obstacles, whether real or perceived
• Teamwork is THE differentiator

The words are easy. Delivery is complex and difficult.

Are you prepared? Have you done the thinking? Can you create the space to make the most of the situation or are the ‘alligators biting’? Do you have the in-house capability to see and grab the opportunities?
