Under the most intense scrutiny, CCG and Trust leaders are at a tipping point. Pressed to both improve and save, their best chance is to get digital right.
Digital’s promise is more for less. Delivering on that promise, these leaders share a problem. Across all sectors digital transformation is proving a much tougher and more radical undertaking than expected. Despite better knowledge the incumbent is often disadvantaged by what exists while the newcomer, or even the disruptor, often has a clear advantage thanks to a clean slate.
… a time for great leaders.
In health and care there is little room for manoeuvre and none for error, so the temptation to play safe is overwhelming just when the need for inspiration is paramount. This is a time for great leaders.
As advisers, Bale Crocker helps streamline digital decision-making by boosting readiness and the ability to step up to challenges. We help people to grasp problems and possibilities, to achieve insights and consensus, to share trust and common ground, to cooperate and collaborate as a team. Our clients are world-class professionals.
Success is people. Digital Roadmap and Digital Maturity workflows depend on people working together seamlessly, although perspectives and levels of understanding vary widely. A slight individual attitudinal shift can make all the difference to a team retaining “the range of skills and capabilities it requires.”*
… reduce gaps, bolster knowledge …
We’re used to it. Our measured, personalised injections of practical knowledge, insights and skills can reduce gaps, bolster knowledge and promote consensus on good decisions.
Getting the right mix into the right minds takes experience and expertise. Our work is based on over 25 years’ success with a wide range of people at board level across several sectors. Straightforward, highly targeted interventions can ensure that “leaders and others gain the skills, knowledge and experience they need.”*
Our work is:
- minimally-invasive – thanks to delivery options to suit you
- respectful – thanks to an experienced, pragmatic, no-nonsense approach to knowledge sharing
- personalised – thanks to our listening skills and preparation
- focused on people, not messages – thanks to our individual or small-groups-only method
- reinforced – thanks to free limited ongoing support
- free of budgetary surprises – thanks to our fixed-price guarantee.
Independent of suppliers and technologies, our work with individuals equips them to make world-class judgements on digital transformation in a local context.
Our personalised advice and coaching is based on evidence-based diagnosis and analysis, We build on what’s there, equipping individuals for best practice strategy development and digital decision-making in their present context. These decisions have lasting national importance.
As always we create with you a business case to target outcomes and benefits, then help you to select and configure interventions. Ensuing work can then help direct new behaviours, skills and techniques towards strategic necessities.
A digital mindset is easy, not obvious.
Team members who see digital in the round are more likely to achieve well-informed consensus and robust decisions.
Our pragmatic approach has been tested at the highest levels in the world’s most demanding and competitive organisations. Knowledge management and digital strategy have been crucial to our clients for decades.
We bring a rigourous, fresh outlook and an energetic, structured approach leveraging decades of management experience. We can really help. The next step is to email or call us.
Christopher Marsh and John Bale shall be waiting to hear from you.
