Director of Public Service Reform for a metropolitan local authority. Also a fellrunner and ultrarunner with much more ambition than talent. Views my own.

Expecting a “prototype” to change the system is like blaming a car’s starter motor for not powering the whole journey. ‘’Proliferating” ideas is an entirely different thing. @MarkAdamSmith and I explore prototyping & proliferating public service reform. mutualventures.co.uk/post/sustainab…

Mark Watson, still here but very much also Bluesky
We’re just not made for this many chats, that’s why people go mad on here. If you were at a party and made a remark about tennis, but two people turned it into an argument about Biden, and someone else shouted WE DON’T TALK ENOUGH ABOUT OWLS, you’d lock yourself in the toilet.

Interesting from @wesstreeting “From today, the policy of this department is that the NHS is broken" Ties in with @bmj_latest commission on NHS recommending the incoming government declare “a state of emergency in health and social care.” It really is that bad. And it lowers expectations and sets us up for slow progress. But what should @UKLabour do first? gov.uk/government/spe…

@PaulIanTaylor @John_A_Wade @BryonyShannon Bryony is pin sharp in her take on language, purpose and the importance of relational support. Definitely one of the people in public sector land that we should all be listening to and learning from.

And there he goes stomping over the rainbow 🌈 bridge. My beautiful Bosnian gentleman Safet. Didn’t bark once since you came here. The joy dogs bring to our lives is counterbalanced by the fact they just don’t live long enough. Goodbye my best boy 💔 I will never forget you xx

Rest in Peace Joss Naylor. Quite the most inspirational athlete I can think of. A Wasdale shepherd that just won everything and never lost his love for the fells. We’ve lost an absolute great.

Liberating Public Services as a concept is pretty old and part of what makes us human. As a method, it's growing and iterating. With roots in vanguard, human learning systems and in the profundity of recovery, we grew the LM in Gateshead. changingfuturesnorthumbria.co.uk/an-institute-f…

@Rships_Project @LACNetworkUK When I’m asked to prove the power of relationships and relationships and relational working, I’m happy to. But I’m increasingly getting annoyed and asking what possible case can be made for designing relationships out of human centred work? There is no biz case to stay as we are

How do you prove the value of relationship-centred work? That's a question we get posed time and time again. Unsurprisingly, there's no cookie cutter solution, but this research by @LACNetworkUK shows that it's possible, and that it's irrefutable 👏

Thrilled about the launch of groundbreaking research on #LocalAreaCoordination! @LACNetworkUK collaborated with an NIHR-funded academic partnership on the first multi-site evaluation in England and Wales. Read more at communitycatalysts.co.uk/lacnetwork/new… #TransformativeResearch #Prevention

@ProfDonnaHall @KateAlvanley Absolutely. A relational approach which has support, challenge, agency and purpose. It can be messy too. It’s not neat and critically, not commissionable. It needs an investment mindset. Investing in what matters to people.

The shift to communities at the 🩷 of public policy making isn’t going to be easy. It’s the opposite of what professionals have been taught for decades. It isn’t about inviting people in for a “community day” then going back to normal. It’s a massive power shift; painful for some
