Whilst a College member I expressed concerns in relation to social media behaviour of College members. It was clear to me that COLLEGE CORE VALUES were being ignored by College members on a daily basis.
I shared my concerns with the President of the Royal College of Psychiatrists.
Today, the best-part of 2 years on, and ‘out of the blue’, I recieved this AUTOMATED reply:
Professor Michael Rutter has suggested that we remember: “Progress in science—clinical science and basic science—has to come from questioning the given wisdom of the day and doing so in a style that builds constructively to a better understanding. In other words, destructive criticism is rarely the way to go”.
