transformational change and
service improvement?
Professor Moira Livingston, NHS Improving Quality
2. Everyone Everywhere Every Time
• Financial challenges
• Quality: safety, outcomes and experience is the focus
• Rising expectations
• Increasing complex health needs
• Unacceptable variation

15. Features of success
Training is not enough:
• Identify the right people who can be leaders of change
and improvement
• A culture that supports change (time encouragement
and recognition)
• Mentorship

clinical leaders in improvement and large
scale change

Sky’s mission in 2010 was to win Tour de
France with a British rider within five
years – they did it in two years
19. Consider
• The vision and purpose
• Leadership:
– Behaviours and values
– Culture
– Courage
– Resilience
• Seeking commitment not compliance
• Focus on:
– Why - benefits to patients and clinicians
– Strengths more than deficiencies
– Everyone getting better
• Align the system levers to maximise efforts for improving quality
• Data and measurement
Editor's Notes
Can we get a moving image of scales so they tip from heavy on compliance to heavy on commitment ( above is final position)?
NOTES:
Change that starts from commitment to a collective goal is much more likely to achieve sustainable results than change that is based on compliance (Walton 2005)
It is much easier to ensure compliance at an organisational level when it is based on commitment to change; people who buy into the “why” are more likely to do the “what” (Roffey Park 2013)
There is little evidence in the change literature of organisations or systems that have delivered and sustained large scale change largely on the basis of compliance (Bevan 2011)
