OD Network - NHS Improvement Culture Change Toolkit

About the event:

This network session will be an opportunity to explore what is meant by ‘culture’ and ‘culture change’ and to consider what this means for us as practitioners of change, improvement and OD. Culture change is the universal call made by NHS employees in every part of the health care system. Regardless of role or seniority we are keen to call on others to change the culture for the better despite an uncomfortable truth that we are all creators of the culture we find ourselves within. This network event will be the first in a series of events focused on climate and culture in organisations.

• During the morning there will be an opportunity to learn about the NHS Improvement Culture Change toolkit in a session facilitated by Sue Burgin, Development Advisor at NHS Improvement, and time to work through how this can be applied to practical issues we face as leaders for change.

• In the afternoon there will be time to share other approaches to culture change and models you have used in your own practice along with some open time to share, collaborate and connect.

• Finally, there will be a mop up session to identify specific questions and challenges, including defining gaps in our understanding and evidence base, that we will use to shape follow-on network events.

Invitation to take part:

Given the nature of the subject we encourage a wide ranging and multi-disciplinary audience across all health and care settings.
