The document discusses the 'In Control' project in England which led to achievements in individualization, flexibility, control, and innovation. However, it cautions that simply providing good ideas to government will not create social change and that citizens need to build alliances to challenge laws and policies. It stresses the importance of finding humility, innovating together, respecting the time change requires, and not accepting problems as stated to solve the real issues.

1. The ‘In Control’ project led
to some important
achievements
in England
Individualisation
Flexibility
Control
Innovation

2. BUT…

3. You cannot achieve social change by
just giving your good ideas to
government and hoping for the best…
We need to focus more on
building alliances between citizens
in order to challenge laws and policy

4. we need to find more
humility and the capacity
to innovate together

5. respect the inevitable
time that positive
change takes -
don’t cheat
‘new money’
can create
unsustainable
or phoney
change
it’s easy to solve the wrong
problems - don’t accept problems
as they are given to you.
