Change is changing & our methods need to change too. In health & care, Gantt charts are the dominant method for managing projects. Yet in other sectors, there's a big shift away from them. As change gets more complex, project timelines get shorter & more changes & pivots are needed. In @McKinsey research:
- 72% of project managers report Gantt charts become outdated within weeks of creation.
- Teams spend an average of 4.5 hours per week just updating project timelines.
Modern project management favours layered planning, where, say, quarterly plans outline big-picture goals & weekly plans keep track of immediate tasks.

I’m confused whenever NHS leaders suggest that we could learn from the armed forces, about leadership, organisation or anything else.
So many issues with bullying, racism, misogyny- we should offer them support, but not look to them.
