Transformative reflection resource guide (Health Education England, 27 March 2023)

Summary

To thrive and deliver the best healthcare, healthcare professionals depend on their ability to self-reflect and adapt their working behaviours. This skill is developed through self-awareness, an openness to alternative perspectives, proactively seeking feedback and a willingness to change behaviours as a result of reflecting. Transformative reflection is a type of reflective practice that can transform a person's sense of work-based identity, sense of purpose and how they work, ultimately influencing the collective wellbeing.

This guide explains what transformative reflection is, how to create an environment in which it can take place and suggests formats and resources to aid organisations in encouraging transformative reflection.
