One of the most beautiful and emotional moments I have seen on TV #Strictly #StrictlyComeDancing

[Deirdre Heenan @deirdreheenan]

Dianne Buswell and Chris McCausland have taken #StrictlyComeDancing to a new level.

The most beautiful partnership.

Just give them the glitter ball.

Collaboration & co-creation are not the same thing.
Collaboration means working with others - who often have their own goals & agendas. These goals have to be matched & if they're not, one person’s gain can be another person’s loss.
Co-creation is about jointly creating something new with input from everyone involved. If we want to do things differently in future, collaboration isn't enough. People need to be near the creation process (co-creation) to work in creative ways.
Research from Google shows that to co-create we need to:
- have a shared vision
- think in questions instead of problems & solutions,
- work in ways that level the playing field so the loudest voices don’t get the most attention,
- create psychological safety for people to open up
- offer good guidance/coaching to facilitate the process in a way that manifests the values of co-creation
- make stuff & not just talk:

Last week @ScotGov launched a consultation to seek views on a universal definition of care experience.

#ThePromise tells us that an agreed definition will help to normalise care, helping more people understand and relate to it.

Great day @CurriePrimary_ hearing about the fantastic work they do keeping the promise to their care experienced pupils.

[Nick Robinson @bbcnickrobinson]

Deciding when, how & what to tell those you love and who love you about a cancer diagnosis can be as traumatic as hearing about it for the first time yourself. I hope those who casually spread gossip, rumour & conspiracy theories about the Princess of Wales now stop & think about what they’re doing and tell others to do the same
