Leadership and Management Framework

 LEADERSHIP & MANAGEMENT DEVELOPMENT FRAMEWORK Delivering Transformation, Quality Improvement & High Performance through Great Leadership, Management and Staff Engagement The NHS needs great leaders and managers! Recent failings and the scale of transformation and change requires a rethink to our approach, the style of leadership and the way we manage people to ensure they remain motivated and engaged through turbulence and change. Recent reports from the King’s Fund highlight the need for ‘Collective Leadership’1 and ‘Medical Engagement’2, these building upon previous work and publications, ‘No more Heroes’3 and ‘Leadership & Engagement for Improvement’4. All four of these reports emphasise the need for and value of highly effective, collaborative, distributed and engaging leadership to drive forward quality, safe, compassionate and effective services. Common themes from the latest thinking that has emerged include the need to focus on creating cultures that: • Reinforce and sustain visions of continually improving high quality, compassionate care • Establish clear, challenging, measurable priorities for all staff throughout the organisation • Ensure staff are respected, valued and supported • Build team, inter-­‐team and inter-­‐organisational working • Ensure continual learning and quality improvement at every level and in every area • Encourage people to accept responsibility for outcomes and to view errors or failures as opportunities for learning and innovation • Encourage high levels of staff engagement and ensure collaboration across professional and organisational boundaries It is recognised that medical engagement is fundamental and needs to be a priority to ensure medics are involved in decision making and formal leadership roles to include involvement in the running of operational services. Fundamental to effective leadership and management is the opportunity for those in leadership and management roles to be supported with development to ensure the appropriate skills, knowledge, behaviours and confidence can be acquired and sustained. This Leadership & Management Development Framework reflects the commitments and ambition in the Trust’s Organisational Development to build a strong leadership approach which has a focus on enhancing the cultures described above. 1

Why do we need a framework? • To help ensure our development offering meets the needs of the organisation • To clarify understanding of what we mean by good leadership & management • To SIMPLY explain what development is available and its relevance to different levels of leadership responsibility What are we aiming to achieve? To develop a culture of strong leadership and effective management that delivers safe, high quality, and compassionate care through staff who feel engaged, are empowered and expected to perform to high standards in line with our core values. •

Engaged – the degree to which staff are willing to learn and perform to achieve organisational goals Empowered – the degree to which staff feel able to make decisions and solve problems High Performance – the standards that we expect, deliver and maintain All of this is underpinned by the Trust’s three core values, People who use our services are at the centre of everything we do We value our staff Our partnerships are important to us The Trust’s ‘Living our Values’ Behaviour Framework describes how these core values can be practiced by everyone in the organisation and lived everyday through all that we do. In developing our culture we need to be clear about our expectations of all in leadership roles. The NHS Leadership Model exists to help those who work in health and care understand how to become better leaders, and is complimented by our own set of leadership values. Both are outlined later in this document. Pages 3 & 4 of the Framework provide an overview to help inform understanding about the development programmes and opportunities available through the organisation or via NHS Leadership Academy or regional programmes and how these align with the key levels of leadership & management responsibility. Page 5 outlines the key behaviours underpinning our three core organisational values relevant to all levels of employee, and our own Trust specific leadership values. These are minimum standards expected. The NHS Leadership Model is included as the overarching model for leadership and management standards to which all NHS leaders and managers should aspire. Page 6 provides an overview of the key functional responsibilities for each level of managerial or leadership role. These are based on national occupational standards.
