‘CONNECTING PEOPLE’ LOCALITY PLANNING A ‘WHOLE SYSTEM’ APPROACH

Purpose of this pack Outline progress on the tool to drive ‘Connecting People’ locality planning Set out the draft model and stages Outline key issues and next steps

Background – Locality Planning and Whole Systems approach Connecting People – a recognition that we need to do ‘whatever it takes’ to seize the opportunity LAA process identified key cross cutting issues and need for ‘whole system’ thinking Some new drivers –Economic opportunities –‘Aspirations’ –‘Virtual Team’ & Intensive area management – City Strategy – Strategic Commissioning – More with the same/less

Key assumptions Focusing on the ‘wicked issues’ – complex, resilient… The whole system in the room ‘Real time’ modelling – engaging and energetic Different stakeholder perspectives A common, adaptable process Use of basis of Results Based Accountability, Strategic Commissioning and ‘Design Experiments’ Rolling processes up where possible

Proposed model in outline STAGE A: Problem analysis STAGE B: System analysis STAGE C: Action Planning STAGE D: Trialling change Understand the problem in breadth, depth, past, present and future. Understanding who’s problem it is and why. Understand our current approach to the issue in detail and ‘end to end’. Map stakeholder engagement ‘Set up the problem’ in system terms. Understand ‘what works’. Developing a plausible ‘end to end’ cross partnership response to the problem in its local context. Test new model in locality with ‘control area’. Assess impact. Roll out what works.

Stage C: Action Planning What should we change? (Now, Soon, Later) 1. Assess feasible, desirable, acceptable? Timelining. TasksMethod What do we need to do to get started? Who does what? 2. Implementation planning. Project management methods. 3. Stage D: Changing
