What I Offer

I draw on my extensive experience as a Director in the NHS to deliver multi-agency and multi-level projects to help you gets things started and deliver what is important to you.

Some of the things I can offer are outlined here, but whatever your needs, just talk to see if I can help.

Strategy

Organisations, departments and teams each need a strategy that sets out their overall direction and the scope of their work in the long-term.  In the public sector a strategy sets out the delivery goals, the configuration of resources for delivery and how stakeholder expectations will be met.

My approach is to support you, through a robust, analytical process to develop and test your vision and goals and prepare a strategy that underpins your work and that of your team.

Examples of my leadership of strategy include

  • A Primary Care Estates Strategy for Cardiff Local Health Board that led to the strategic development of a wave of new primary care facilities in the City
  • The approval of the joint Cardiff Strategy for a Healthy City, the forerunner of Cardiff’s membership of the World Health Organisation Healthy City network.
  • The approval of the Powys Teaching Health Board’s Statutory Medium Term Plan

Planning

Planning is a process that can operate at a population, geographical or project level.  It is primarily concerned with ensuring delivery, through clear, demonstrable measurable plans.  My expertise is particularly suited to planning integrated, multi-agency projects that bring together the aims and cultures of diverse organisations.

Example of my leadership in planning include:

  • Leadership of the NHS contribution to the Loudoun Square Regeneration Project, an innovative housing, healthcare and commercial development at the heart of one of the most deprived areas of Wales
  • Delivery of the Glan Irfon Health and Social Care project in Builth Wells

Facilitation

I am a highly experienced facilitator able to design and run outcome focused workshops, from large conference style events to intimate workshops for smaller teams, and multi-agency groups.  I will work to understand your context and design a process that will deliver the outcome you are looking for.  I use a highly skilled, interactive approach bespoke to your requirements.

Technical Author

I can help to communicate technical information in a way that is easy to understand.  The information may be presented in a number of forms and for different audiences.  I have extensive experience of writing for a range of audiences and purposes including, public information leaflets, complex papers for public sector boards.  I also offer technical support for business case and bid-writing.

Do you need help with:

  • Gathering, collating and making sense of information from a diverse range of sources into a coherent and logical document?
  • Preparing, editing and proof reading papers and documents?
  • Preparing publicly accessible documents?
  • Supporting your team to improve their technical writing?
