Can’t believe how long ago it was that I used to commute from here everyday … #10YearsLater and heading into Manchester for a business meeting is bringing back so many great memories of our IQP days @MFTnhs@MFT_QIT 💙 ✨

When you feel like a mystery shopper visiting family in hospital over last few weeks 👀 2 different hospitals, 4 different wards, each described using 1 word
Impressive
Chaotic
Shocking
Safe
What was different? Communication!
Huge impact on trust & confidence
Spending the day at #NHSConfedExpo - lots of discussions about using data and AI in healthcare - both for efficient processes and safer clinical care - the next 10 years will be very interesting as we help patients navigate new services and pathways

2/2 So here are few top tips:
⭐️never assume they know what you know
⭐️make space for them to clarify their understanding
⭐️know why this particular stakeholder is valuable to ur change project
⭐️know exactly what you need them 2agree to
⭐️1st be open 2their ideas & suggestions
Do ur stakeholders really understand what u are saying?
My niece came to visit from USA
I said“Let’s meet at Piccadilly” She said “What is a Piccadilly?”
Our plan faltered simply cos we were starting from a different place.
Miscommunication is so common in stakeholder work👇1/2
🌟HAPPY NURSES DAY 2025🌟

Such a privilege working with nurses in a variety of settings..caring for our colleagues & strengthening teams #NursesDay#RCN25
Another great session with West Yorkshire and Harrogate Cancer Alliance, looking at the progress made on improving the pancreatic cancer pathway 🌟 exciting to have agreed the first test of change starting this month 🌟
Beautiful blue sky day in Leeds today facilitating two very active task and finish groups with @WYHCanAlliance - prepping resources for the PDSA tests of change stage in the Pancreatic Pathway Improvement – Project 2: Improving End of Life Care

So lovely to receive these beautiful flowers as a little goodbye from an amazing #GP practice where we implemented online access and total clinical triage in 6 weeks!
Absolute superstars 🌟🌟

Last week in #Wigan!
It’s been such a strange experience that every single week since October my sat nav has taken me a different route to one particular #GP practice …. I wonder if this might be the week when I actually know where I’m going 🤣
@change_experts@vblanchard1
Feeling like a mystery shopper again today! At least it’s a blue sky day at the #hospital 😎
So glad we have a wonderful #NHS to provide high quality #healthcare when we need it

Can you believe it’s only been 2 weeks since New Year??
2025 is already going at a pace!
Lots of exciting work planned this year and we’re looking forward to sharing more about all that very soon ⭐️ in the meantime better get back to our GP practices for this afternoon’s sessions
Lovely to be out on the road together today - sunshine, castles and creative conversations - both looking fresh before our afternoon workshop!

Been thinking for a while how insights we’ve gained from leading Ward Accreditation programmes could help improve #CQC approach to inspections
V glad @wesstreeting reviewing thoroughly -it’s critical that inspections effectively monitor quality&safety if we want NHS to get better
@SkyNews@wesstreeting Glad 2C this review but esp concerning when u consider the new CQC framework & process
Inspections that do not represent the truth of quality & safety do not help anyone
Lots of learning from leading internal #WardAccreditations could be used 2provide scalable lessons & insights
Team building activities with #PCN staff this week 💙 can’t beat the Lego serious play kit for breaking down barriers in a team and building back stronger - some creative towers and amazing models built ⭐️ #StaffMatter#teambuilding#VisionSetting
