Reflecting on a Milestone Morning: The Inaugural Advisory Board Breakfast for AFC Bamber Last Sunday morning, I had the privilege of attending the very first advisory board breakfast meeting - a gathering that marks a significant milestone for our footballing community. As I sipped my tea and conversed with my fellow board members and club assistants, I was struck by the collective wisdom, passion, and dedication at the table. This wasn't just about the delicious breakfast; ( Norman Jepson Beefeater ) it was about laying the foundation for a future where our members can thrive through collaboration and mutual support in our weekly kickabout sessions, or by joining the team in our newly FA-accredited club. 🔍 Key Takeaways: Collaboration Over Competition: The power of sharing knowledge and resources can propel us further than working in isolation. Today, we pledged to build bridges, not walls. Innovation as a Lifeline: In a rapidly changing world, adaptability and innovation are not just buzzwords but our lifeline. We discussed fostering a culture that embraces change and challenges the status quo. Support Systems: Building a robust support system for all our members is crucial. Whether it's navigating life's challenges or exploring new coaching methods, knowing you have a trusted network makes the journey much less daunting. As club secretary, I left the meeting feeling inspired and energised, the path ahead is bright, and together, we can achieve remarkable things. 👍 If you found this post useful why not COMMENT/REPOST, follow me, or please ring my Notification Bell 🔔 #AFCBamber #Football #MensMentalHealth #MentalHealth

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 ENGLAND HAVE JUST LOST THE EURO'S FOOTBALL FINAL.......⚽️ The team are feeling down so what now? 🖥️ During a Group Coaching session on Leadership with John Amaechi OBE Giant Community, Schwartz Rounds (SR) was mentioned and during the group I went on to explain what they are (as a Trained SR Facilitator), and the significance for the English football team. ⛑️ Schwartz Rounds derived from healthcare, are a structured forum where staff, from all disciplines come together to discuss and reflect on a difficult emotional social issue or experience. The purpose of Rounds is to be reflective and understand the challenges and rewards (not to problems), to help staff feel more supported in their jobs. ☹️ Sadly, England lost in the final and you can imagine the mental turmoil on the players as well as the effect of the responses from the public and media alike. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 So how can Schwartz rounds help the England team? (Or your Team) 🤔 Start by asking yourself NOT what you could have done differently or how you could have ‘fixed’ the problem, BUT how the experience impacted on you. What were its particular challenges? What techniques did you use to cope with the situation? Has it changed the way you work? If so, how?  👨👩👧👦 Evidence shows that staff who attend Rounds feel less stressed and isolated, with increased insight and appreciation for each other’s roles.They also help to reduce hierarchies between staff and to focus attention on the relational aspect. This was hugely important during #Covid as healthcare staff shared their own stories which were relatable amongst their teams and brought them closer. 🗣️Schwartz rounds should not replace a formal debrief or support mechanisms, but it is about establishing a safe, confidential and comfortable forum for participants to speak - which is much needed right now! 🙏🏿 Please note - Rounds need to be in a trusted and psychologically safe environment. In addition it needs to be done by a skilled & an experienced facilitator. 👂🏿Happy to Hear how you may deal with difficult, emotional, social issues or experiences at work. 🏆 Off course the World Cup is in 2026, you never know! #SchwartzRounds #Reflection

In a world where no-one wants to offend or say the wrong thing, do you ever get the honest answer to “Does this look good on me?”   When you are in a circle of trust with peers whom you have a deep relationship with, who care about you as a person, and who want the very best outcomes for you then they will tell you!   Candour and brutal honest can be confronting but again when it is delivered by someone who understands your situation and is delivered with empathy, you accept it and are grateful as you know it will make you better.   At REX we build trust between each other, so there are peer to peer challenges to get better.
