“If you want to go fast, go alone, if you want to go far, go together” – African proverb.
At ELFT we believe that it is essential for people to be supported to get the most out of their improvement work. With this in mind, we have a structure of support available within each ELFT directorate, with further help from the central QI team.
Please see our governance arrangements depicted in the image below with more detailed information via the buttons below.
Monthly Directorate meetings led by senior staff. A place to present and discuss QI priorities, projects, and get support. This meeting is often attended by QI sponsors and QI coaches, with the support of the local Improvement Advisor.
