The Tories aren't just disagreeing over who their next leader is - but when and how they're elected The few remaining Conservative MPs are arguing about what form a leadership contest should take, never mind who should be leader. Each leadership contender has their own agenda about how long the contest should last, who should vote and in what form the vote should take place. Some want to go long and use October’s party conference as a hustings event for members, with a leader installed by the end of the year. Others want a much shorter contest with a new leader in place by the autumn. Read more on the ITV News website here: https://lnkd.in/ec6sEma7

I usually avoid politics on LinkedIN. But in a significant way this is not about politics, it's about democracy. Regardless of where you are on the political spectrum, chances are your vote doesn't count in the UK because of our obsolete voting system. Remember when you were taught in school that Democracy means rule by the majority? Not in Britain. Most MPs are elected by a minority of voters in their constituency. Imagine if we actually became a democratic country--instead of pretending.

Executive Coach for senior executives and top teams in the property industry and more with big goals facing transition and growth
Watching Keirs first move... I always find it fascinating watching a new leader make their first announcements and start preparing themselves in order to succeed in their new role. Once the early formalities are done, the big first task Sir Keir Starmer will face is the building of his management team - his Cabinet and the wider roles around it. It will be interesting to see what approach he takes to this and how he manages some of the key stakeholders. Recent Prime Ministers have had very different approaches. Some have filled their team with people that are similar to them and have similar views where challenge is not common, others have had to balance supporters with vocal opponents just to keep the peace. Sir Keir will have spent a time thinking about who he wants where. He has already done the hard work of bringing together a Labour party that was previously divided. His shadow cabinet seemed consistent in their messaging and had a balanced ratio of those who think like him and those who don’t, but who are willing to get behind final decisions Many of my clients will be looking carefully to see who takes on the key positions in housing and planning policy and will be hoping that whoever it is will continue in that role for a considerable time in order to have a positive impact. #election #leadership #executivecoach

What does this teach us about leadership today and what is needed going forward?
https://lnkd.in/g59DRSUd A superb analysis of the problem with Australian leadership today and a move to push blame outwards. We have seen all this before and probably will again.

🌟 The Power of Choices in Leadership 🌟 In the world of leadership, choices are the compass that guides us towards the future- both good and bad. We all make thousands of choices every day, but for some of us, they carry a profound weight that can shape the destinies of nations, organizations, and communities. As I reflect on the most recent election, it's a stark reminder of the immense responsibility that comes with some choices. Elections are the embodiment of the choices we make as a society. They are the culmination of our collective hopes, fears, and aspirations. When we cast our ballots, we invest in a vision of the future and entrust those we choose to elect with the power to make decisions on our behalf for better or worse. The choices of these elected leaders are not to be taken lightly. They have the profound responsibility of shaping policies, laws, and regulations that impact the lives of millions- whom they may or may not ever meet in person. The weight of their decisions extends far beyond the confines of an office, a conference room, or a council chamber; they can ripple through every aspect of our society. They must be acutely aware of the impact their choices have on those they represent and lead. It's not just about winning an election- that's the easy part; it's about what comes after- the leadership, the decisions that will define our collective path. Every choice made can be a catalyst for positive change or a source of enduring consequences- seen or unseen. Leadership choices can shape our economies, our healthcare systems, our educational institutions, our infrastructure, and our response to global challenges. They can influence the environment, social justice, and the well-being of current and future generations. The stakes are incredibly high, and the choices must be made with unbiased wisdom, empathy, and a deep understanding of the diverse needs of their constituents. As we navigate the complex challenges of our time, let's ALL remember the profound impact of leadership choices. 🌎💪 #Leadership #choices #Responsibility #Impact #ElectionsMatter

🗳️ From Sunak's business-like approach to Starmer's symbolic set pieces, each party leader has crafted a unique image this election campaign, hoping to connect with voters ahead of tomorrow’s vote. 🗨️ In the latest of our Ballot Box series, Henley’s Professor in Leadership, Professor Bernd Vogel observes; "We like to have a focal point to help us make sense of things. Party leaders know this and so give us nuggets and nudges to indicate what kind of person they are and the leader they will be." Will leadership iconography influence the result, or will voters prioritise policy? 📊 Read here for further insights: https://hly.ac/4cPvodv #UKElection2024 #UKGeneralElection #PoliticalLeadership #VoterEngagement

Sir Keir Starmer performed best overall in the Sky News leaders' event, a snap YouGov poll suggests. Almost two thirds - 64% - of those questioned said the Labour leader came out on top, compared to 36% who thought Prime Minister Rishi Sunak did better. Looks like we have a clear winner of this debate. The 1st one suppressingly won PM Rishi Sunak with a weak performance from Lanour leader Sir Keir Starner . This was a crucial moment for Labour leader to take necessary momentum and make sure that his views and political agenda us well positioned among potential voters in UK . During The Battle For Number 10 programme, broadcast live from Grimsby Town Hall, the leaders each faced a 20-minute interview from Sky News political editor Beth Rigby followed by 25 minutes of questions from audience members. Afterwards, when the voters in the poll were asked who came across as more trustworthy, 58% said Sir Keir, while 28% stated Mr Sunak. Also, 56% said Sir Keir was more likeable, compared to 29% for his rival. That’s very significant and important answers from the voters for the next steps of both parties & leading candidates in election campaigning. According to 71%, the Labour leader came across as more in touch with ordinary people, while 13% opted for the prime minister. According to the poll, 70% chose Sir Keir, compared to 20% for Mr Sunak. That’s a very significant difference in favour of Labour leader as leading personality. On the section about the economy, it was closer - 49% for the Labour leader and 42% for the Conservative leader. Labour Party leader as well as all his shadow cabinet ministers plus parliamentary candidates must emphasise more major issues & points on current economic policies and the ones which they will introduce to general public especially ordinary people who are suffering now and can be the deciding factor for the overall win for Labour Party. Plenty at stake and plenty of very intensive campaigning by all Labour candidates & their leaders to “ bring home “ such much expected win after well over long decade outside the governing.

The United States' 2-party farce and stranglehold on the electorate has brought us voters a quite unsatisfactory and untrustworthy duo of candidates for the 2024 presidential election. These 2 people cannot be my (like many others) elected leaders-period! Money, party-power-politics and reliance on manipulating a broken political system (as broken as the other public systems) has brought about no effective change (governance or social), no 'best' candidate practices and relies on self-interested and under-qualified elected officials (and their following appointments). PA 101... An under educated, emotionally evoked via media, and misled public has to manage with the lesser-evil of 2 poor public/world leaders. Who essentially loses when the public does not maintain the best leadership? Critical thinking about critical leadership issues...
