Strong and stable mate.......
Thatcher introduced "business" management to the NHS. The result is that every NHS Trust has its own grossly overpaid chief executive and management infrastructure. Just like franchising the railways. Time we took it all back, mate....

Agree with this, but it's a modern disease across many businesses.
Absolutely loads of "consultancy" and feel good change management but very little implementation or improvement in performance or efficiencies mid or long term. It is also full of language straight from Silicon Valley and token HR policy that only succeeds in making affected employees disenfranchised as it's not sincere. The staff aren't daft.
The consultant gets the nice fee, your company on their portfolio and moves on just as the short term motivation bounce wears off. Most of it is exposed as a farce.
I do think that the NHS should seek to seek and hire business leaders with appropriate skillsets for senior roles in under performing sectors or areas (ie: lots of them). Most important though they need the appropriate funding and investment to make sustainable improvements.

The problem is the quality of these people, just calling them CEO or COO doesn't mean they actually have those skills. Chico is right when he says that there is no end of HR and 'Change Management' peole on the health boards, just pull up the board of any health trust and you will see it.....

Strong and Stable NHS England. Aren't the Conservatives launching their safer internet campaign today, you could not make it up.
A quite substantial narrowing of the gap, but still a massive lead.
I suspect it will be more like a 10 point difference in the real thing.
"Theresa May will vow to “fix the broken housing market” and arrest a decline in social housing by announcing a scheme designed to boost the number of new council homes for rent.
In an attempt by the prime minister to reach out to low-paid workers, she will announce a plan to offer funds, loans and new powers to councils and housing associations to help them build a new generation of social housing for renters. She will also pledge to give the new tenants the option to buy the property after 10 to 15 years.
It is a recognition that there are currently 300,000 fewer homes for social rent than 20 years ago. However, there will be questions over the extent of real funding for the project.
“A Conservative government led by me will not duck the big challenges we face as a nation and there are few issues that are greater than the need for good-quality, affordable housing,” May will say on Sunday. “Whether you rent or buy, everyone needs the security of a place to call home but too many ordinary working families are stuck on council waiting lists, facing unaffordable rents and struggling to save for that first deposit.”
Let's see how much May is badgered by the BBC for an answer on the costing of this pledge. Where will the money come from Theresa? "From a strong and stable Chancellor of the Exchequer, who will use the money raised from increased NI contributions from the self employed, to build 300 000 homes".
