Linking actions to goals, with Nina Field Humans At Work

    • Careers

“One of those examples is, we talk about articulating strategy, because strategic thinking is no good if it just stays in your head.  So, we talk about articulating strategy and how you can get clear on that in your head, in order to communicate it and articulate it. That’s not just how do you write a strategy document, that’s how do you have day to-day conversations where you’re being clear with people, you’re leaving space for them to come up with their own solutions.”

 

This episode of the humans at work podcast features conversation with Nina Field, Business Psychologist.  Nina shares her journey from her love of water to joining the Navy and then designing her own highly successful strategic thinking programme.

Nina and I talk about what its really like in the Navy, how organisational psychology and a love of strategy led to Nina designing a programme to help people translate the process of strategic thinking into tangible actions, and the value of understanding how you think.

 

Nina and I talk about:


Working in the Navy
The focus for organisational psychology
The training foundation of defence work that enables readiness
Strategic thinking from a psychological perspective
Nina’s strategic thinking framework and programme
Metacognition – the process of thinking about your thinking
Jules’ decision-making practice work
The link between thinking and decisions, and decisions and actions
The need for clear articulation of your strategy
Use of assessment tools in selection and development
Cognitive Profile process and the value of understanding how you think
The value of knowing your strengths and weaknesses and recruiting for complementary skills and capabilities.
