A nice post by Corporate Rebels: The iceberg of ignorance is killing your company.

▪️ Top execs see 4% of problems. ▪️ Team leaders see 74%. ▪️ Frontline staff see 100%. The point is clear: Critical info gets lost on the way up. Yet most leaders hide in offices, making decisions in a vacuum. Corporate Rebels has identified the following behaviour best leaders demonstrate: 👉 They walk the floor. 👉 They do the dirty work. 👉 They value frontline voices. 👉 They build trust, not fear. 👉 They make sure info flows freely. Very interesting. In a nutshell: " No trust? No truth. No truth? No progress".

Israel says ceasefire has been violated — Iran denies

The Israel Defense Forces have accused Iran of violating the ceasefire announced by U.S. President Donald Trump “In light of these severe violation of the ceasefire carried out by the Iranian regime, we will respond with force,” the IDF’s Chief of the General Staff Eyal Zamir said, according to a Telegram update from the Israeli military. Earlier, the IDF had reported it was working to intercept missiles launched by Iran toward Israel, with sirens blaring in the north of the Jewish state. News of Iran carrying out a missile attack against Israel after the ceasefire came into effect is “denied,” Reuters cites Iranian media as refuting. Source: CNBC
