Background to Partnership • Physical Activity Strategy due for renewal 2010 • Usually led by PH and the PCT • Originally asked to do the narrative • Actions and outcomes needed to come from the providers of service – what could be measured, what would be an improvement etc
Quarterly meetings with floating attendance from 8 organisations Attended either by lowest grade member of staff due to time commitments, or ‘the figurehead’ Low grade staff – unable to influence and engage higher levels re strategy or data collection The figurehead – never gained buy-in across the organisation as they were the ‘doer’ 2 years later – still no actions/outcomes identified by provider organisations Physical Activity Strategy - before
No one organisation can deliver the strategy Needed buy in from all organisations Group discussed operational rather than strategic issues Repetitive minutes !!! Standing still between meetings Cycle of non-attendance, repetition, nil action Physical Activity Strategy - before
Common vision Added value Willing to make changes ? Facilitate partnership working Objectives are aligned Leadership Issues
Mutually accountable Understand and respect differences ? Deal with conflict and frustration Communications are sufficient & effective Sharing of contributions, risks & rewards Equal say Trust Issues
Managing Performance Issues Structure fits its purpose Roles, responsibilities & contributions clearly defined Objectives, targets & milestones are set and owned Adequate resources Project management and co-ordination ?
Learning Issues Continuously seek improvements ? Review the partnership Seek to learn from each other ? Use strengths and talents Manage the changes
A Bad Partnership • A good thing to do, but nobody’s priority • No decision maker (s) • No overall responsibility for partnership’s delivery • Being done for appearance’s sake • ? Used as a talking shop and ‘woe are we’ • A breather from the day job
Next Steps Survey to: • Identify strategic & operational leads from each organisation • Whether PAS is a priority for the organisations • What could be done differently/better • Results to go to Health and Wellbeing Board • Board to clarify if a priority • Potentially, this Board will then provide leadership and accountability focus.
