Benefits Cycle for Patients/Service Users, Staff & OrganisationsBenefits Management is a key priority for all public sector projects, and none more so than NHS.

Benefits Cycle for Patients/Service Users, Staff & OrganisationsKnowing what you want to achieve and how to get there is vital to any project: but most people already do that. So how come so many projects fail to improve service, or worse, fail altogether?
Benefits planning is a series of facilitated workshops which unpicks the motivations and drivers and prepares a plan to deliver each stakeholder’s benefits along with the shared benefits, and a pragmatic process to measure and report benefits. This is about more than money – delivering better patient experience, staff opportunities, clinical outcomes, population health are all addressed and the output is a “case for investment” which appeals to the heart as well as the head.

So why are the main political parties in UK engaging in their favourite sport of manager bashing?

How stuff works - Gossip
