When you have a negative team member, strive to understand what’s happening. Leading a negative team member can be frustrating. You have a vision, and you’re energized about your new solution, but they’re skeptical, critical, and keep bringing up problems. Or, you have to translate new strategic objectives to your team and one person just can’t seem to go there.

Most HR leadership philosophies are grounded in two completely faulty assumptions — “change is hard” and “engagement drives results.” Those beliefs have inspired expensive attempts to keep change from being disruptive to employees. What these engagement programs actually do is create and reinforce feelings of victim-hood and leave employees unprepared to adapt to real changes that are necessary for the health and profitability of their enterprises.

When a stakeholder asks you to solve a problem, make sure you understand what’s driving their request. Asking follow-up questions can help you come up with better solutions. So many times when we’re asked to look into an issue, we just rush off and start solving it without really thinking through what’s causing the person to ask the question in the first place.

Meat consumption has long been highlighted as a key barrier to reducing our carbon footprint. Recent research from the University of Bonn shows that the average EU citizen currently consumes about 80kg of meat every year, and reducing this figure will be vital if our climate targets are to be met. “If all humans consumed as much meat as Europeans or North Americans, we would certainly miss the international climate targets and many ecosystems would collapse,” the authors explain.
