We need to set a good
culture across all
teams/ organisations
Staff need to feel
empowered.
People who are
supported need to feel
in control.
This is a difficult
juggling act to balance!
What makes a
difference?
1) Strong role models
across the
team/organisation
2) Managers
experiencing support
first hand
3) Involvement of
individuals and
families
4) You said.. I did!
5) Everyone is
accountable
6) ‘We can do this’
attitude
7) Do not take your
eye off the ball!
