England's heritage sector generates £45 billion annually, more than the aerospace, defence, and sports industries combined💰. Strategic investment in Britain's heritage can unlock numerous economic benefits.💸

A new blog post. June is MND awareness month so if you could share this post you’d really be helping. More awareness of what MND entails means more leverage for the community in all areas. Thanks for reading 😊 #mnd #toughdecisions #wouldyourather https://t.co/bjj0GI8i2A

[Helen Bevan @HelenBevan]

What levers & mechanisms can senior leaders use to enable change in a hierarchical system? The most commonly used are holding to account through regulation, performance goals & incentives. These often lead to superficial compliance through control rather than building shared purpose through collaboration & trust.
This new article describes the use of an "Explicit Psychological Contract" (EPC), a formal agreement that outlines the mutual obligations/expectations between two or more parties with differing levels of power. In this case, the EPC was between a national healthcare regulator & leaders of five hospital systems seeking whole, system quality improvement.
Insights:
1) An EPC acts as a powerful tool in fostering an adaptive, reciprocal, and trust-based relationship by clearly articulating mutual obligations.
2) When a breach of the EPC occurs, one or both parties assess potential risks and benefits for trust relations, and may choose to trigger (or not) a collective discussion to understand why.
3) The true power of an EPC is accessed only when the parties to it stick to the expected behaviours across time, especially in the face of adverse conditions, e.g. political instability & resource constraints:

Evening! We couldn’t talk about St Paul’s without mentioning the monastery ruins directly next door.

Just like the church, these ruins are a patchwork of eras which were added onto each other until the suppression of the monasteries in the 16th century.

Though Bede resided here for most of his life, much of what we see does not date from when he took residence. Monastic life declined a little time after his death but was reestablished in the 11th century. It was Aldwin, the prior of Winchcombe, who devoted his life to the workings of Bede and restarted the monastery.

He reconstructed it in the style of the traditional Benedictine complexes with a central cloister, but only partly finished it before becoming the Prior of Durham. Thereafter, it was a poor and austere colony with only a few monks here. It wasn’t until the 13th or 14th century when most of the ruins we see came to fruition and self sustenance really began.

There was a farm here with a granary, mill and barn. A chapter house and kitchen stood on the east side which is part of what we see today.

Much of it was cleared as part of the wider dissolution in the 1530s, but parts were continually demolished through the centuries. It still marks one of the most remarkable religious sites in the whole of the north though, and I’m still yet to do the walk from Peter to Paul!
