QI Connect: Learning to enable improvement – managing effectively in complexity

This event is part of the QI Connect webinar series hosted by Healthcare Improvement Scotland.

The next QI Connect session, with Toby Lowe, takes place on Wednesday 15 March, 3PM – 4PM UK time.

This session explores the relationship between Human Learning Systems and continuous improvement. “Human Learning Systems” is an alternative approach to public management which embraces the complexity of the real world, and enables us to work effectively in that complexity.

The NHS and social care services are complex adaptive systems. Complexity creates a variety of challenges for all who work in public service. The outcomes they seek are created by the complex systems that are the lives of the people they serve.

Join us to hear Toby explain how creating a management environment which enables and supports continuous learning drives improvement in complex environments.
