A regular in our events calendar.

impacts of the pandemic which is hitting vulnerable and marginalised groups particularly hard and how the public sector can step up to support communities in need.

Leading for inclusion – What Does This Look Like?
Thursday, May 13, 2021
Location: online via Teams
“John Amaechi is literally stunning. He will make you think about who you are, what you do and believe! Don’t expect to be entertained, expect to get real.”
Join organisational psychologist, New York Times best-selling author, and NHS non-executive director John Amaechi OBE for an interactive and challenging discussion around inclusive leadership.
Through thought leadership, compelling personal anecdotes, and in-depth Q&A, John will harness the skills and attributes that leaders already have towards creating an inclusive workplace culture. Participants can expect to leave the masterclass with an understanding of the performance advantages of inclusive teams, a fresh perspective on their influence as leaders, and the tools to turn “functional discomfort” into action.
This event is for everyone working across health, social care and local government who wants greater insights into how they can lead better for inclusion.

Developing a system & culture of Quality Improvement
Wednesday, May 26, 2021
Location: online via Teams
All health care organisations are required to improve the quality of care as assessed by CQC. Many other types of organisations across the public sector are also looking at how they can improve the way they work.
It is recognised that the dosing formula and training initiatives do not, in themselves, guarantee sustained improvements in culture or care. It requires executive leaders and managers as well as clinical leaders to consistently adopt a coaching for improvement style and fororganisational conditions to be created to help staff at all levels to
embed changed behaviours into everyday practice.
