Purpose of This Session
• To discuss how organisations are traditionally designed and managed - and, therefore, why they find it hard to understand what matters.
• To explore counter-intuitive ways to design and manage organisations so they can understand what matters.

Solving Problems
“We have more work than we can deal with”. “Morale is low”. “Costs are increasing”. !
How are these traditionally tackled?

“Most people imagine that the present style of management has always existed, and is a fixture. Actually, it is a modern invention – a prison created by the way in which people interact.”W. Edwards Deming

• Between 1996 and 2012 Ruth had 129 different interactions with public-sector agencies. From running a successful business with her first husband she deteriorated to having ill health, her children removed and being entirely dependent on the public purse.
• Ruth was taken on by one of the new ‘Wellbeing’ teams piloting locality working; she is now in suitable accommodation with her children and her situation has stabilised.

What matters to people in these systems?!
• “Just talk about what matters to me” • “Understand my specific concerns, don’t use a
menu of services to solve problems you think I have.”
• “Feeling valued – feeling I contribute – social involvement”
• “Be transparent in your work” • “Wanting to be independent” • “A key person – one point of contact”
![Page 20: Reshaping Services at a Local Level - Understanding What Really Matters](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022052911/559ec7a01a28aba3578b4791/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

Different Thinking - Different Solutions• We start from the demand in a locality, and
design public services to meet that demand. • This is not the same as changing local authority
boundaries. • This is not the same as ‘co-location’ - co-location is
necessary but not sufficient. • This is radical redesign of the entire public
service from first principles - restructure across existing organisations based on knowledge of local demand.
• Common Purpose, Common Measures, Common Principles
