Leadership is the practise of getting the people to face complex collective responsibilities

It is unpopular and dangerous

Identify the Adaptive Challenge

Regulate the distress

Create the Holding Environment

The Seven Principles for Leading Adaptive Work

•  Create the heat •  Sequence & pace the work •  Regulate the distress

Protect the voices of Leadership from below

•  Resume responsibility •  Use their knowledge •  Support their efforts

Get on the Balcony

Give back the work

•  Work avoidance •  Use conflict positively •  Keep people focussed

•  Ensuring everyone's voice is heard is essential for willingness to experiment and learn •  Leaders have to provide cover to staff who point to the internal contradictions of the organisation

•  May be a physical space in which adaptive work can be done •  The relationship or wider social space in which adaptive work can be accomplished

•  A challenge for which there is no ready made technical answer •  A challenge which requires the gap between values, beliefs, attitudes and behaviours to be addressed

•  A place from which to observe the patterns in the wider environment as well as what is over the horizon (prerequisite for the following five principles)

Maintain Disciplined Attention

Complex Adaptive Social Systems

The annual protest by Orangemen at Drumcree has passed off peacefully.

The parade, which was banned from returning along the mainly nationalist Garvaghy Road, left Carleton Street Orange Hall at 10.20 BST. After a service at Drumcree Church, Orangemen walked to a police gate at the bottom of Drumcree Hill and staged a brief protest. PSNI Chief Superintendent Alan Todd said the day had gone very well and police had to use fewer officers than at any previous Drumcree.

The Orange Order march at Drumcree, Co Armagh, passed off peacefully today. 

The Parades Commission had ruled that the Drumcree march be rerouted away from the Garvaghy Road, continuing a ten-year ban. The Drumcree parades dispute has caused tensions since the mid-1990s, but recently it has not generated the large scale violence seen in the past. Recently, talks between Sinn Féin leader Gerry Adams and Portadown Orangemen fuelled speculation the issue has been drawn into wider political negotiations between Sinn Féin and the DUP, but both parties have denied this.

The annual Orange Order parade at Drumcree in Portadown has passed without incident.

Orangemen have been banned since 1998 from going down the mainly nationalist Garvaghy Road in Portadown after their annual march from Drumcree church. Hundreds of Orangemen took part in the march and Sunday service at the church. They handed a protest letter to police over the Parades Commission's refusal to allow them to return along what they say is their traditional route.

•  Public Managers are not limited, as they are in the private sector, to the provision of goods and services; “often public managers are in the business of imposing obligations not providing services."

•  Probably the public managers most commonly thought to be engaged in this “retail delivery of obligations” are those in policing.

Examples of Agency Failures • Police - Abuser removed from home by Police after incident but returns 3 hours later to damage home;

• Police - After one incident police do not arrest Abuser even though in breach of bail conditions;

• Probation service – Victim support, would not notify Emma of when Abuser is released from jail;

• Prison service – Emma continued to receive threatening mail from Abuser whilst in prison.

Examples of Agency Failures • Women’s Aid – offered a refuge in Barry – not an option with young children;

• Social services - After an incident, Emma telephoned Social Services from a friend’s house and was told to go home and phone the police; Fear of children being taken into care – reluctant to seek help;

• Housing - On transfer list for 4 years to move away from Abusers;

• Housing - Policy creates the need for the victim and her family to move rather than the Abuser.

• Health - Attended A&E with Police on 2 occasions after incidents, but no referral made, handed a leaflet;

• Health - After an assault, Emma lost baby. Attended A&E. Handed a leaflet and letter for GP. No further contact with Midwife.

PHASE TWO - GALVANISING CHANGE

•  Minister, Leaders, senior managers of agencies met Emma and listened;

•  Made commitments to change the way we respond to victims of domestic abuse;

•  Action Plan prepared and all senior executive and non-executives responsible for delivery;

•  Refocused CSP Domestic Abuse Forum to support and drive operational delivery of actions;

•  Limited additional cost to implement changes – making better use of what we have.

KAFKABRIGADE

PHASE TWO - GALVANISING CHANGE

•  Trained large numbers of health professionals to divert and support victims through care pathways;

•  Housing associations have introduced protocols to put victims housing need first, look to accommodate locally and support tenancy;

•  Police-training all frontline staff on how to respond to Domestic Violence incidents and undertake risk assessments;

•  Difficulties Emma experienced with criminal justice system addressed;

How has Kafka helped? •  By putting the Citizen First – realising how

difficult it can be to access the labyrinth of services;

•  Brought a wide range of professionals together to share good and poor practice, and solve the problems together;

•  Created discomfort for all professionals by dealing directly with a citizen who has received an ineffective service;

•  Informed and changed working practices and national policies.
