The Trust now have an internal pool of coaches who are waiting for you! Coaches can help you in a range of ways including: transitioning into a new role; developing performance and skills in your current role; overcoming work related challenges and enhancing effective working relationships to name but a few.
Silas Nichols, Chief Executive is supportive of coaching and through embedding a coaching culture across the Trust it provides a tangible way of ensuring that our SCOPE values are translated into the day to day relationships between staff at all levels. Here are a few words from Silas about his experience of coaching: "Through personal experience, I would thoroughly recommend coaching as a development tool. It has helped me to improve impact throughout my career by providing me with a structured way to think about things differently and to become better in my working practices. As a senior leader it has enabled me to measurably improve my productivity, performance and relationships. I have become a more effective leader, creating a proactive and flexible environment supported by an excellent senior executive team - working together, with you, to achieve great things. Utilising a coaching style in the conversations we have with each other and the way in which we work is one way we can support each other to be the best we can be both on an individual and organisation level. It helps create an environment where we can all contribute towards the ongoing growth and development of the Trust as a great place to work."

Collaborative Masterclass - People Powered Health and Social Care What does it look like and how can you create a culture that enables it? A masterclass that is about true participation. Learn more about people powered health and social care and what that means for your leadership role as you lead services that enable patient and public participation. Participants welcomed who work together across a place based system so they can learn together throughout the masterclass and take the ideas back to their place of work. Building on the masterclass in July, this event will translate the New Power ideas from the work of Jeremy Heimans and demonstrate how health and care is changing. Power is often understood as a zero sum game. But some of the best innovations in health, care and wellbeing are creating a new form of power. Power that motivates and mobilises both citizens and staff. Power that connects citizens with the health, care, community and voluntary sectors to find new ways to support people to be healthy and happy. Come and hear how it can be done.

An Unconference for the North West OD Community The OD community across the North West have told us that they would value a space to come together, to share and learn with OD colleagues in the region. In response to this, recognising the wealth of expertise and talent across the North West OD networks, the NHS NWLA is hosting its first Unconference on Thursday 11th July 2019 at the Manchester Conference Centre. What is an Unconference? Have you ever been to a conference and found that, despite the experts and keynote speakers, some of the most interesting interactions and most valuable ideas came from the coffee break? This is where Unconferences come in; an unconference is basically a conference without predefined topics or keynotes. The expertise is in the room, not up on stage. There is a high-level structure and theme, but actual topics are generated by participants and breakout groups are formed dynamically based on interest and relevance. Interested in attending?
