There are few approaches that are as powerful to bring together an organization towards a shared understanding and purpose. From executives, to technical teams, to finance, to new employees #wardleymaps let everyone see how they fit into the effort of the organization to deliver value. They also let you see where investments could and need to be made with strategic purpose.

So is your solution at the top of the map? Is it leading the drive to the right? If not you, then who? If you aren't the most visible source of value to your customers, which of your competitors is? How long do you think they'll wait before they cut you out of the stack? If you're not planning to lead the move to the next tier of service, which of your competitors will?

Today marks the 22nd anniversary of the tragic events of September 11, 2001, a day that profoundly changed our world and left an indelible mark on our collective consciousness. On this solemn occasion, we pause to remember and honor the lives lost, the heroes who emerged, and the resilience of our nation. As we reflect on 9/11, we are reminded of the power of unity, courage, and community. The acts of heroism displayed by first responders, ordinary citizens, and countless others serve as a testament to the strength of the human spirit. It is essential that we never forget the sacrifices made and the enduring spirit of solidarity that emerged from that day. In our roles as members of the Intellect family, we can draw inspiration from the stories of bravery and compassion that emerged in the aftermath of 9/11. Let us remember the importance of coming together to support one another, to overcome challenges, and to build a brighter future. Today, we encourage each of us to take a moment of reflection, not only to honor the memory of those we lost but also to reaffirm our commitment to creating a more compassionate, resilient, and inclusive world. Let us channel the spirit of 9/11 into our daily lives by fostering a culture of empathy, understanding, and unity within our workplace and communities. Let us continue to work together to build a brighter, more inclusive future.

I think this is such a bonkers idea on so many levels 1. It shows us up as weak - we achieve something as a country and we all get on the p*ss and can't be bothered working - what happened to 'what's next' - it's not how winners behave, celebrate yes but train the next day... 2. The pubs will be full anyway, regardless of the next day 3. Not everyone likes football 4. We didn't have (and I don't remember loads of calls for) a bank holiday for the women winning the euros 5. As above for the Cricketers winning the world cup 6. What about other sports or major achievements - we very often punch above our weight in the Olympics - say we finish 3rd in the medals table (which would be a far bigger achievement) do we have another random day off 7. It's too hard to implement at too short notice and won't be a bank holiday for the vast majority 8. What about everyone with a hospital / doctors / dentist etc appointment on Monday - they get cancelled because those workers absolutely should be treated to the treat - retail AND hospitality won't be able to rejig rosters and will have to foot the bill for 'bank holiday' pay 9. Let's not even mention the direct correlation to 'on the p*ss' and the rise in domestic violence Bonkers!
