“To transform systems, we must understand the water we swim in.”

Helen Bevan OBE shared Peter Senge’s Water of Systems Change model, revealing how real transformation happens across three levels:

• Transformative (implicit): shifting mindsets and mental models

True leadership goes beyond structure. It’s about changing conversations, relationships, and thinking.

At 11am, on the 11th day of the 11th month, we remember.

We pause to reflect on the remarkable courage and sacrifice of those who served, and those who never returned.

Lest we forget. 🌺
