The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.
Does it acknowledge the Lord? Does it reflect needs rather than wants?
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters,
Is it task-focussed, driven by human (you) endeavour? Or is led by God and characterised by His easy yoke and peace?
He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake.
Is it restorative, just and gives glory to God?
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
Is it based ON God-given en-COURAGE-ment?
Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
Is it overflowing with God’s love?
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.
Is it life-giving?

I am a ‘People Practitioner’ who has, over the years, been swept up by the tidal wave of change that has seen my profession go from being called Manpower Management to Personnel Management to Human Resource Management, and now back, well sort of… to Systemic People Management. I came up with the last phrase because I find myself increasingly uncomfortable with working within the confines of the ubiquitous neo-liberal approach to categorising and organising people. I believe that people are people, not merely assets, human capital or resources. While we do find fulfilment from PRODUCTivity, we are ultimately human beings, not human doings. I would like to transcend who we have become and becoming in a marketized, monetarised world and leave the corporatist worldview that reminds me so much of the allegory of Plato’s Cave.
I love God, my family, playing guitar, following Arsenal, travelling and taking and editing photos. This website is a celebration of all these things and more.
