About me
I've been helping teams, leaders, organisations and systems working on large-scale change in the NHS and wider public sector as part of the Horizons team in the NHS since 2014. I'm a qualified ILM5 coach and provide management, leadership and team development to many different organisations, often using the “Energy for Change framework” to help teams refresh their approaches to change. I have a Ph.D. in Psychology and Learning Theory and have brought together stakeholders to build shared purpose and share learning across many programmes of work, using SenseMaker and other insight generation tools as a means to gather intelligence, distil insights and mobilise action for change. At the NHS Institute for Innovation and Improvement between 2006 and 2014, I contributed to the development of the “Change Model”, “NHS Model for Large Scale Change” and “Spread and Scale” Frameworks, all of which we apply routinely in Horizons to build active learning networks for change. Using Community Development Methodology, I also currently support learners on the School for Change Agents, a Massive Online Open Course hosted on the FutureLearn platform and attended by thousands of staff in the NHS each year.
