NHS cuts and Lessons on Change

Saturday, December 12th, 2009

Yesterday on the Today Program, BBC Radio 4, they were talking to Dr Richard Taylor, MP, about how they could save £20b in the NHS, and not cut frontline services. [click cutting to go to original item]

He refers to a paper produced by NESTA called “the Human Factor”, he quotes it and says “When resources are scare, it is doing things differently that will deliver the kind of transformation we need….”  I think there is a serious lesson here for most businesses.  Salvation and the way forwards lies in:-

1.  The Human Factor, i.e. our people, and

2.  Doing things differently!

More of the same simply won’t work….  Time to change folks.

Video Blog: Why Change can’t be ‘managed’

Sunday, December 6th, 2009

If people ask me “What do you do?”  I’ll often say “I’m a Change consultant” To which they normally go “Oh.. Change management” If time is short I agree, but given half a chance I explain why I don’t like this phrase and why I feel that real change is not something to ‘manage’ rather it need facilitating and enabling.  This video gives a better explanation of what I feel.
