Presentation at the HLEG thematic workshop on "Multidimensional Subjective Well-being", 30-31 October 2014, Turin, Italy, http://oe.cd/HLEG-workshop-subjective-wb-2014
Delivered by Sally Bagwell and Lynn Simmonds NPC
Resource Social Impact Seminars
As part of the Cultural Commissioning Programme, New Philanthropy Capital (NPC) delivered a series of Social Impact Seminars aimed at arts and cultural organisations. These seminars took place in Birmingham, Leeds, Exeter, London and Peterborough between October and November 2016.
Many arts and cultural organisations need to show how their work contributes to social outcomes. These may be outcomes required by public service commissioners or outcomes wanted by funders.
These seminars aimed to help participants to identify, collect and interpret evidence which:
• Could be used to inform and influence funders and commissioners of their social impact
• Was realistic to collect, in keeping with the individuals and communities they work with
• Focus on current best practice and make use of existing research.
The Cultural Commissioning Programme runs until June 2016 and is funded by Arts Council England. It is delivered by NCVO in partnership with NPC (New Philanthropy Capital) and nef (New Economics Foundation).
Allied health professions as agents of change in reshaping care E33 (1#2)Sophie40
AHPs are uniquely placed in delivering outcomes for integration as they already work across health, social care and the third sector. This workshop will highlight some innovative examples of partnership working, pose questions and initiate debate. Key themes explored will include how putting the person at the centre can improve the individuals care and experience and how self-management and enablement can empower individuals, families and carers. Contributed by: Scottish Government - Allied Health Professionals team
In cooperation with the Research and Evaluation Division of BRAC, Copenhagen Consensus Center organized roundtable discussions with an aim to figure out smarter solutions to the most problematic issues facing Bangladesh.

My talk was titled 'Decoding Ratings for superior service in restaurants - Using text to understand customers'. The focus was quite simple - convince and demonstrate how to read and understand customers from their reviews, not ratings. Our product, Lunchbox, a complete restaurant management solution was showcased as well. It provides restaurant owner cues for exceptional customer service. Millions of reviews for almost one lakh restaurants have been processed and can now be used for market scenarios, competition analysis, transactional information and customer profiling.
For more than 30 years, Sage has been helping midsized businesses in all industries choose and implement human resource and payroll solutions. Our experience has taught us that when people begin searching for human resources management software, they find the process overwhelming and need help identifying their needs, determining the questions they should ask, and gathering the vendor information they need to effectively compare and select the right solution.
We believe expertise unshared is knowledge wasted, so we’ve distilled what we’ve learned from our over 12,000 Sage HRMS customers and created this HR software buyer’s guide with useful information you need to know, including, recent trends in human resources and HR technology, top ten considerations for HRMS, a key software capabilities checklist, and how to evaluate the company behind the product.
We want to make the HR software purchase process as painless as possible and help you find the right HR software solution for your needs whether that solution is Sage HRMS or another.

Levelwise PageRank with Loop-Based Dead End Handling Strategy : SHORT REPORT ...Subhajit Sahu
Abstract — Levelwise PageRank is an alternative method of PageRank computation which decomposes the input graph into a directed acyclic block-graph of strongly connected components, and processes them in topological order, one level at a time. This enables calculation for ranks in a distributed fashion without per-iteration communication, unlike the standard method where all vertices are processed in each iteration. It however comes with a precondition of the absence of dead ends in the input graph. Here, the native non-distributed performance of Levelwise PageRank was compared against Monolithic PageRank on a CPU as well as a GPU. To ensure a fair comparison, Monolithic PageRank was also performed on a graph where vertices were split by components. Results indicate that Levelwise PageRank is about as fast as Monolithic PageRank on the CPU, but quite a bit slower on the GPU. Slowdown on the GPU is likely caused by a large submission of small workloads, and expected to be non-issue when the computation is performed on massive graphs.

Policy
High-Level Expert Group workshop, 30-31 October, Turin
October 2014

Contents
• UK wellbeing programme
• Why?
• Measurement framework
• Approaches to using subjective wellbeing in policy
• A few examples
• Governance and focus of work
3. 3
UK Wellbeing Programme launched by PM in 2010
• Recognition of the deficiencies of GDP and need for complementary
measures of social progress
• Aim to better reflect ‘What Matters’ to people in our decision making
...economic growth is a means to an end.
If your goal in politics is to help make a
better life for people – which mine is – and
if you know, both in your gut and from a
huge body of evidence that prosperity
alone can’t deliver a better life, then you’ve
got to take practical steps to make sure
government is properly focused on our
quality of life as well as economic growth,
and that is what we are trying to do.

How are we defining and measuring wellbeing?
• 41 measures/ 10 domains
• Informed by a national debate
• Mix of Objective and Subjective
• “Personal wellbeing” Domain
• How satisfied are you with your life
nowadays?
• To what extent do you feel the things
you do in your life are worthwhile
• How happy did you feel yesterday?
• How anxious did you feel yesterday?
• Mental Wellbeing Scale (WEMWBS)
5. 5
Approaches to reflecting SWB in Policy
Approach Example(s)
Direct Wellbeing Policies Tackling loneliness, teaching resilience, supporting parenting
Measure Adding SWB to policy surveys e.g. Crime Survey, Housing etc.
Analyse Analysing SWB and Green Space, Air-Quality, Flood Zones
Value/ Appraise Valuing participation in sport and cultural activities
Evaluate Adding SWB to evaluation of interventions for unemployed
Inform/ Engage Using SWB analysis to inform public health messages
Staff Wellbeing Wellbeing strategies to improve engagement and absenteeism
Actively reflect in policy Tools and workshops to assess policy impact on drivers of SWB
6. 6
What Works Centre (WWC) for Wellbeing
• Evidence to action
• SWB as a common currency
• Build capacity and capability to use
wellbeing evidence
• Users are cross-sector
10. Appraisal – Wellbeing Adjusted Quality of Life Years
10
• Sheffield University team is working on a Well-being adjusted QALY
• A WB-adjusted QALY (or WELBY) would offer a number of possibilities:
• extending evaluation of health care intervention to include non-health
attributes (both on patients, carers and other family members)
• allow health care and social care interventions to be assessed using the
same outcome
• Current work suggests:
• WELBYs would give relatively greater weight to anxiety/depression and
less relative weight to physical functioning and pain
• Using WELBYs in appraisal would likely to result in physical health
interventions seeming relatively less cost effective and psychological
health interventions more cost-effective
11. 11
Valuation - Join-in UK
• Not just about government using
wellbeing data
• Important for Civil Society as well
• Join-in UK was set up to build on
Olympic volunteering legacy
• Used SWB to value contribution of
volunteers to sport in the UK
• £53bn much larger than pure wage
replacement model
